Daily Stuttering Fact #17
For many years stuttering was thought to be a behavioral disorder. That someone who stutters just needs to relax their jaw, they just need to slow down and the stuttering would stop. Some people were given lip or mouth exercises to stop the stutter. None of this worked so people who stutter were conceived as idiots because they couldn't talk "properly". It was also thought that finishing a sentence a person who stutters is stuck on is good. Same with "helping them out" on a word. I think people still believe this and it's one of the main reasons people who stutter are the end of discrimination. What do you think?
I have heard of stupid ways to cure it like cutting parts of their mouths out! of course this made their speech worse, but it cured them!
