Parents who stutter, how do your kids speak? I've always hated my mild to moderate stutter, to the point where I never wanted to have kids. My father stutters as well, so I think it's hereditary in my case. But I ended up being surprisingly pregnant at the age of 40, and everybody around me has convinced me to keep the baby. Now I'm living with this constant guilt that I might pass this on to her. What about your kids?
