thank you guys for writing back. i do sing sometimes but just to my wife and it ain't like it sounds right haha. i don't really stutter when i'm at home i'm not nervous around them. i ain't been to much school and i guess i talk like it. when i try to talk better i think about it to much and get nervous and stutter more. it's like it know the right things to say but i forget or i get confused. the sluring i can't help and that's the worse. i been pulled over before and the cops thought i was drunk cause of it.

It surely could be a psychological issue. Maybe always being stopped when you tried to speak, as though what you said wasn't important. Then the fear of not speaking at the right time, or saying the right thing, and the result from your step-father, for sure could add to the problem.

You write just fine, btw.
