Hello:) I’m 32 years old. I am married 12 years. I have a good job and 4 beautiful little girls. I live a completely normal life, other than stuttering. When I was young it was moderately bad. Never super severe but doing presentations and stuff was very hard. Especially with how mean kids can be sometimes. Hopefully they can stop stuttering with a therapist and while maturing. If not, confidence is the key for a stutterer. It’s way worse when you’re nervous, self conscious etc. As a kid it’s really hard but you have to eventually have a “not give a damn” attitude about it. I wasn’t able to do that until I was in my late 20’s. To answer your question, things will be stressful at times, yes. Chances are they will run into a bully at some point, or just somebody in public that treats him different or gives them a funny look. Things can be totally normal and my life to you would build their confidence. They probably feel like something is really really wrong because they are seeing all of these therapists trying to help them speak better, that can feel defeating sometimes even though it helps. So on the flip side just try and tell them how there’s nothing “wrong” with them and they are special in their own right. Good luck with everything:)
