Really? I didn't see anyone in my husband's side family have a stutter. They are perfect hearing and can speak very well. But my husband had a stutter?? That's weird.

I want to know for your opinion about me and my husband. I have a several deaf genetic in my family. My husband's side family don't have a deaf expect his nephew. Our nephew's dad's family have deaf genetic. Do you think our future children will be hearing or deaf?? I just curious.

I know the devise you are talking about. It is a digital devise that creates a delay between what a stutter says, and what they hear themselves say. It tricks the brain, so that the stutter becomes more aware of their stuttering. It works well for some types of dysfluency.
