Understanding and tolerance of disabled must include stutterers, too
Northeastern Pennsylvania is becoming more aware of people with
disabilitiesBut most people do not consider stuttering a disability. In my
opinion, stuttering is the most criticized handicap.
Most people believe stuttering only occurs in children. When an adult
stutters in public, he is often ridiculed. People who stutter are not stupid
or retarded. Even Charles Darwin stuttered.
