| When I was a kid, one time I was ordering steamed buns by myself. My parent/guardian probably thought it'd be funny to make a kid do that, and force them to learn people skills. I stuttered and the cashier was like "cmon get on with it". And that broke my little brain forever and made me want to never speak again LMAO. | When I was a kid, one time I was ordering steamed buns by myself.

| | It also didn't feel great that if I made mistakes while speaking, my parents would make fun of me instead of teaching me the proper grammar or vocab or whatever. Don't make fun of your kids! At least if they're a mentally deficient squib like me. |

| | I still always feel bad whenever people talk shit about monolinguals. And I feel bad when people are like "its so easy to learn languages, just pick it up!". I wish I could speak Chinese better! It's just barely good enough to give broken directions to the bus stop to random ladies who stop me in San Francisco. |

| | I am not good at learning languages in general, whether its Chinese or Spanish or Javascript LMAO. Memorization makes my brain empty. I always got yelled at as a kid (and as a working adult :p) for forgetting things right in the moment I needed to remember. Oh well, that is the life of undiagnosed (???). |
