Thank you for sharing your story! You mentioned the prank phone calls of people stuttering that get put up on YouTube. I know awareness is key to fixing this problem but when TV shows and movies have characters who stuttered as a comical aspect it really hurts those attempts to make people more aware. How do you feel about the movies that portray people who stutter? In my opinion, I think there are some TV shows that are doing a better job at portraying people who stutter. For example, there is a new TV show out where an Asian girl in high school who stutters and the kids don't think anything of it. Again, thanks for sharing your article. It was very interesting to read!
