Daily Stuttering Fact #14

Daily Stuttering Fact #14


This post will cover two things. It will refer back to Daily Stuttering Fact #9, and an interesting question asked to a blind stutterer.
Lets go back to Daily Stuttering Fact #9.
"This isn't really a fact but more of an announcement. All I have to say is that people are cruel... 

But for the sake of everyone viewing this blog I will elaborate. I went to school today and was being made fun of by people I don't know for stuttering. Normally I brush all this off but they started getting into my race and such. I was told I was an "Indian retard" and I should "go back to my own country".  They said, "You're such an idiot that you c-c-can't complete a full sentence without s-s-s-stuttering".  As  I said before I normally brush such insults like that aside but when they got into my race... I blew up. I called them a few choice words of my own and left. 

So while nothing ground-breaking happened in that incident I just hoped it opened your eyes a little bit and maybe make you think twice before calling someone an idiot for any reason.

People are cruel."

 While doing some research for this Daily Stuttering Fact I found out that the person who average stutter's IQ is 14 points higher than the national average. "Indian retard", huh?
On the same website I was reading about a blind person who also had a stutter. They were asked which is worse, being blind or stuttering? His response? "Stuttering — because unlike my blindness, people don’t understand that stuttering is beyond my control" 
Wow... what do you think about it?
