1. Im not sure if there is anything that could be said to shut down teasing. If anything, there needs to be more education in regards to accepting people with differences. I cant think of a single thing that I could have said when I was a kid and quite frankly, there isn't much I can say now as an adult. When other adults make remarks and I state that I stutter, they either apologize profusely or laugh harder. Its simply a matter of being uneducated and I dont feel its fair to put a child trying to cope with stuttering through the task of trying to educate his/her peers. 2. I personally have always avoided these situations because I havent found anything to help. I'm going to hope others comment and have suggestions! 3. This isnt an option in my community, so I cant speak from experience there. However, I think it would he amazing to have a registry of sorts to get younger and older stutterers together. Or even little meet ups for people in the community who stutter. Our community is so so small, its hard to find others who have the same challenges. I wish I had a sense of community with those who have my same struggles, to be able to speak to others without fear. All that good stuff. I'm apologize, I know my answers aren't very helpful but thats all I've got from my perspective and personal experiences!
