@TheChrismasters6 its obvious that you dont know someone who is stuttering. i do and the person makes those faces too. not for fun...it is really hard to finish a word for them if they have to stutter so.....

[pupmommydad]

@TheChrismasters6 I stutter, and I have to close my eyes when I say a word that starts with a "w". It's not as bad as her, but it's the same thing... I don't think she's faking, personally.

I stutter as well and made a song about how i feel.. so check it out on my wall or posted as a video response x

its obvious that that woman is faking it cuz people who really do stutter dont make those weird faces when pronouncing words

@RyanValejo No, I do not stutter in my mind. We as stutters see so far ahead in our thoughts and anticipate the possibility on stuttering on a word that this my make us loose track of where we are in the sentence we are trying to say. However, I know exactly what I want to say, but do not know exactly when it will be said. I hope this helps.

@RyanValejo Stuttering doesn't work like that. It is a complication involving forming words vocally, and that doesn't translate mentally. We know exactly what we want to say, but for whatever reason we can't get it out without repeating syllables.

No people who stutter do not stutter in their minds. Only while speaking. I know because I am a stutterer.

[Kovaelin]

It take courage to take on her kind of career.

Nina is not fake and NO ONE likes to stutter. I stutter too. There is no cure and do you think us stutterers LIKE stuttering??? No we don't! We hate it and it ruins certain things in our lives...Nina was lucky enough to turn her stutter into a career..so to speak. It's not easy for us. You people who do not stutter have no clue what it's like for us at all. We didn't ask for this in life and it isn't funny. We ALL have flaws!
