modern the old Sproles Joe Biden James
old Jones Tiger Woods and me England’s
between us all have in common
at one point I want pointer to life do
they all up started
fun fact about me is that I started in
two languages even though I I stutter
less in my original language but I still
started I think I think people feel
empathy for me I I I don’t want that
I mean feeling empathy is great but for
people like me who stutter stutter it
just makes them feel bad putting
yourself in or in another people shoes
is great but I am perfectly fine in the
shoes I live in only about won’t only
about 1% of people in the world stutter
that is about 70 million people I think
I’m special because of it there are
three main reasons why a person may star
or as being anxiety of course not all
people with anxiety stutter second being
that that if me run in families
let’s say your grandmother or
grandfather has had stuck stuttering
you’re more likely to have yourself
third reason is that their third reason
is that starting people process speech
in different part in different parts of
the brain a irregular president process
speech in the broken and vertical part
parts of their brain while a certain
person process speech in the technical
odd to our part of the brain it’s all
according to the faq the starting
foundation myself I I started because of
anxiety Webster College this house has
told my mother a long time ago that that
I started because I get too many
thoughts in my brain too quickly
imagine me walking up to an ice cream
truck and trying to ask for an ice cream
cone but but overall calm but all that
comes out is may I have an ice and
instead of an ice cream cone I get an
ice cream sandwich because the person
I didn’t understand me one time one time
I forgot my book to English class ie I I
was very nervous walking to my English
room because I knew I knew I’ll have to
ask my teacher if if I may get my book
from my locker of course they started
because I’ve been nervous but my teacher
dead long dead let me get my book if it
was because of my stirring I would
rather have taking the punishment and
not have gone in my book the definition
of empathy is the ability to understand
and share the feelings of another I
believed I’d have died if a person
talking to you is stuttering it is
perfectly fine I think you should like
let him or her take his or her time and
and the conversation would would be like
any other thank you [Applause]
