Of course! In fact I have 2 kids! Still too young to know if they will stammer or not, I honestly couldn't care less which way it goes. The way I see it, there's nothing intrinsically wrong with stammering. The only problem is the layers of negative feelings which people so often have around it. I have learned to have a more neutral or even positive attitude to the way I speak, and if my kids stammer I will be sure to teach them this from day 1. So, they should have a much easier time than I did in my younger years.
