Hello, my name is Rory. I am 10 years old. My favorite video game is Roblox. My favorite song is Blue. I live in Florida. I have a stutter. I am a professional at my speech tools. The reason I am writing this article is to help people who stutter and give them hope.


Did you know the following facts about stuttering:


FACT #1: More boys than girls stutter.


FACT #2: YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!! Lots of famous people stutter, and millions of other people stutter in the world.


FACT #3: Stuttering is NOT a disability. If you stutter, you can do any job you want...you can even run for president.


Hi, my name is Sebastian. I am 9 years old, and I am in 4th


grade.


I live in Fort Wayne, IN with my mom and dad. I enjoy hanging out with my dogs, making movies, and acting in plays within my community.


I’d like to say that it is okay to stutter. Stuttering runs in my family. When I got my fi rst copy of the Stuttering Foundation magazine, me and my dad realized that we weren’t alone.


CONCLUSION: I hope this helped you learn about stuttering. Please spread this information about stuttering to give people hope.

When I stutter, I experience blocks and repetitions. When I’m trying to reach my words, it feels like I’m a fl y that is stuck in a net. I recommend strategies like using easy starts and slowing down your speech. Just because these strategies work for me, doesn’t mean they will work for you. Everyone’s stutter is different.


Have a stutter-tastic day! Sebastian, 9, Fort Wayne, IN
