Don’t Make Fun – It’s Not Nice
I am 10 years old and have been in therapy for 2 years. At first I thought that it would kill me but now I know it will not. I don’t really like it but I put up with it because I have an awesome teacher named Ms. Chelsea and a family that helps me through it. Not everyone likes stuttering but it is not our fault if we stutter, so don’t make fun of people that stutter – it’s not nice!

I AM A STUTTERING SPECIALIST
My name is Dylan, and I am a stuttering specialist. I started a long time ago, but then I found ways to make it much easier. I learned several strategies that make stuttering easier and found joy in making other people feel that way. I presented to classrooms and 4-H judges with a presentation that teaches people about stuttering. Years ago, when I’d stutter, I was able to solve my problems by using stress-relieving animals from the unlikeliest corners, such as goats and rabbits. I have also been going to a speech teacher in Fresno for over 4 years and one other speech teacher at school for 3-1/2 years. If you stutter a lot, and if you are reading this, it would make me so, so, so, so, so happy if you always remember that it is NEVER your fault if you stutter.

Stuttering when talking in front of a crowd feels like your demon of fear is taking control, but you can stop that demon! Use the strategies that you know to help stuttering.
