You always hear people saying stuttering has nothing to do with intelligence. However, I have encountered numerous mentally retarded people who stutter. Especially I have noticed a high percentage of stutterers amongst people with Down Syndrome. Is there a correlation after all? I want to point out that I am a stuttering person myself and have a fairly close relative with Down Syndrome who also stutters. This connection has always made me a bit uneasy whenever I'm in her presence and there are other people around. I'm not looking to offend anyone with this post, I'm just curious as to how things are. Thank you for any responses.
