That sucks. Ask him not to joke about your stutter. Tell him it hurts your feelings. You deserve to be treated better than that. Fathers should always support and elevate their kids. When we make a...

Not a story or a question

Not a story or a question Just an attempt of bettering my situation. ​ I'm looking for somebody who I could call and speak to and share some of my knowledge on stuttering and just practic...

You’ve hit the nail on the head there. That’s exactly what I experienced years ago growing up, sometimes still happens but I make sure I reinforce what I said if I see that I’m being blatantly ignored...

Yes I’m never going to say “I have an uncontrollable affliction, which means I am entitled to you changing your behaviour”. That makes you look like a cunt. I’d rather have people understand and chang...

I feel you man but there will always be these people. Trust me this behavior will get to them in their life and they will also grow. I know it's hard but best muscle I have developed is the ability to...

If that happaned to me I would go inside and "Lemme talk to your manager". You should defend yourself. And I am sorry for your brother, he´s not very smart....

A good company and co-workers will recognize your stammer and give you the time you need. 24 years old, your career is just starting out. Don't quit! I'm a software engineering myself, and you can ...

Has your leadership told you it’s not working out? Are you concerned about getting fired or is it taking an emotional toll or both. I’ve gone through harsh work meetings and presentations, and rarely...

I have seen some positives of having a stutter like this too that if someone can’t be patient in being eager of what you have to say, even if you stutter, then it can sometimes cause me to think that ...

I wouldn't use those words but I get what you're saying. It's really just a bunch of hurt children operating a grown up body when they respond to you in a way that is uncalled for. And you best be...
