My name is Morgan. I am 7 and a half years old. I like art and I’m good at crafts. I also like to write graphic novels for fun. I go to Midwest Twisters gymnastics once a week. I have one sibling, my baby


brother, Elliot. I started stuttering when I was 5 years old. I felt frustrated because I wanted to share my ideas quicker. My advice for other kids who stutter is to not be nervous or shy about it and to roll with it. Just keep using your speech tools. The strategy that helped me the most was using light contact. Light contact is when you touch your tongue and teeth together lightly when you are talking.

Hi, my name is Jacelyn. I stutter a lot sometimes. Sometimes I don't. If I take a deep breath, I don't stutter. My favorite animal is a jaguar.

Hi, my name is Alswell and I’m 9 years old and in 4th grade. I like anime, Godzilla and I like to play Fortnite and Roblox. And I stutter. My speech therapist helps me by teaching me strategies like easy onset and stretching out words. I thought stuttering was like a disease but my speech therapist taught me that stuttering was no big deal! My advice is to ignore the bullies that bully you! Stick up for yourself and don’t change your personality, just be yourself!
