Not having kids is not selfish in any case, we are human beings not breeding machines gtfo with that stone age thinking. We have a choice for a reason. I would argue its even more selfish to have kids than to not take care of kids that are already here and suffering. Stuttering is not something "i don't like about myself". Stuttering is a disability. A disability where there is 70% suicidal ideation, extreme work place bullying, stigma, no cure in sight. I don't judge people who choose to have kids even if i disagree so don't judge back.
