I would disagree with your statement that " Even if you didn't stutter you'd most likely be who you are now, just a shell, a weak shadow of what you could have become if you stopped being self destruc...

If only it was simply a matter of 'manning up' and everything will work out fine. Life doesn't work that way. Very severe stutters can be a real handicap for people and not everyone is mentally strong...

I can take criticism and can accept harsh realities, but I think this post is misunderstanding people who stutter altogether. The simple truth is, you can't assign a method or behavior to cope with st...

Being a stutterer means NOBODY will take you seriously.

Yea, stuttering is fine if you're a recluse scientist in his basement conjuring up potions in the middle of the night. If you're looking to be a social god, the life-of-the-party, any sort of lead...

Indeed. The way I see is that if you have a genetic defect that affects day to day life (oral communication) I find it cruel to have children. Now, if a stutterer has a child, it isn't a 100% guarante...
