sigh. I hear ya. My advice: In general, radio shows have never seemed to be the best quality of entertainment.So just ignore them. I guess what ge...

I couldn't agree more I think stuttering is the last disability that is widely accepted that people can ridicule. If they had done a bit on autism their show would get cancelled. but i love how south...

I understand your defensiveness. But to be fair, I don't think he was being negative, but simply making an observation. Let's look at this from the perspective of a stutterer. I think that most peop...

"You wouldn't make fun of someone with down syndrome, why would you make fun of stuttering?" It probably has to do with the majority of people not knowing much about stuttering. This likely has to do...

To a certain extent I agree with you. It's ok to throw around a joke here and there. I just think it's shitty to center it around a disability. I guess I'm probably overly sensitive to it since I stut...

Morning radio show in my town made fun of stuttering today.

Morning radio show in my town made fun of stuttering today. Driving in my car this morning, a comedy show on a local classic rock station had this bit that was supposed to be a parody of The King's Sp...

I don't see any need for a negative comment, if anything I am just trying to help by raising awareness. I have had problems with my speech and I'm just trying to do something positive with my final un...

It's a weird feeling eh? I actually don't even remember stuttering in grades 1-8, but when I ask my old friends if I stuttered they all said yes which is really strange. However I do remember one mome...

Fuck you OP. You insult me. Stuttering is not something to be proud of. It's disgusting and suicidal. I really wish there was some kind of measure for stuttering. Some guys have absolutely no stutte...

Dick heads. You don't deserve that intimidation at all. You are just like them and they probably have problems of their own. I hate when people snigger or ask: "Why do you go e-e-e-e-e." which is us...

People are assholes. Just don't let it get to you. We've all had it at least once. Just try and be the better man and report it to someone higher....

Like someone else mentioned, stuttering can be classified as a disability (even though I don't agree it is, as it's only impeding our speech, we're just as, or perhaps even more capable than anyone el...

Then you should communicate to them that you didn't appreciate that kind of commentary. They might come at it being like "dude, don't be so sensitive" but if it bothers you, stand your ground. Every...

A punch to that fucker would feel very nice, but I think reporting the bitch would cause more harm to him....

Honestly, if I was in that situation, I would have punched that fucker in the jaw. This is unacceptable workplace bullying and harassment. Same sort of thing happened to me at work once, all be it j...

I know this sounds like some mom shit, but I'm sure they're just insecure about themselves. No educated, mildly respectful person would do something like this. It's childish. But I agree, talk to HR. ...

As other people have said, this is workplace harassment and you don't have to take it. I had a similar situation where a security guard who mocked my stutter. I was new at work and was worried abou...

I would say don't speak to the classmates specifically in regards to this student. Instead, focus on respecting ALL students. Something along the lines of I'm noticing you all have taken to laughing a...

I remember at school a few years back, I stammered on my name when a new teacher asked me who I was. She asked if I had forgotten my name and the whole class laughed. I went home and cried. Things lik...
