Just ask them what’s funny? I think it also helps to establish that you don’t want jokes made about it. For example, I crack a lot of jokes, many of which are at my expense. So people around me also do that, sometimes at my expense. While I have no problems laughing at myself, I immediately stop or politely let them know that jokes on my stutter are not appreciated. For any person with half a brain, they generally understand.
