did you experience speech difficulties at school (telling)?

i didnt speak properly untill i was nearly six, and got held back in my first year of school. i think i was a little violent because i couldnt express myself. i remember one time when the class was making hats for a christmas party, and i had to wear a pink one because i am a girl. i put glue in my teachers hair because i wanted a blue one, and was upset by the fact that i wasnt allowed one because of my gender.

i think feminism came about at an early age for me

Oh yea, I was in speech class for 3 years. People still can hardly understand a word I say.

I struggled with getting words out a lot, mainly when I read things out or described things, and it got worse in college. I remember when I had to give a presentation in front of the class, and the things I'd written were fine, but I could barely get any words out! ;^^ I still struggle with that now, although thankfully I don't have so much pressure on me to do these things, and my family are very patient when I can't get words out.
