I know the feeling. I grew up with an abusive father. Got no support at all. Only my mum accepted me. As immigrants, they didn't know there was treatment and support for stuttering, so I went my ...

Yeah I think it was. I find this a bit neglectful though, you know? ignoring it won’t do any good. It’s funny because my mum always says you should always face things too. It’s just hard....

Maybe they were hurt that their daughter had a stutter and they had an idea of how hard your life must be and found ignoring it a way of helping them not feel much pain. Maybe it was their way of deal...

I was worried about it too before I had my son almost 12 years ago, but unfortunately I don't think there's anything anyone can say to put your mind at ease. Hell, my kid talks fine & I still find...

Can’t you write your frustrations to your parents? They probably don’t even know what’s going on in your head. They need to know your feelings. They want to help, they just don’t know the way you’r...

I'm not saying it's selfish to have kids, but i personally think it is if you have a health problem like that. I wouldn't want my kid to go what i went through... I hope your kid will have a good life...

No offense but i personally think it's kinda selfish... But you're the judge of your life so don't bother me...

My mom too got angry with me when I was 8 years old. I remember a teacher sent me to the school psychologist and there she made me read some stuff. She gave me a note and told me that it was for my mo...

I understand your frustration with your dad. I can you, as a dad with a child that is experiencing stuttering, he most likely is trying to help and loves you. I hope that helps, just a little bit....
