Abstract: Stuttering demands a multidimensional interpretation, as the consequences of the symptoms have been shown in recent years, with psycho-social and psychological effects shown with people living with a stutter far beyond the surface elements. This work explores the degree to which students may stutter with disabilities among school children and adults who stutter (AWS). The effect of stuttering on a person and the members of the family (siblings, parents, and partners) is discussed in this article. Such issues cover mental and social problems, self-consciousness, stuttering responses, interpersonal difficulties in everyday situations, and the overall quality of life. The effect of stuttering on the person who shares stuttering with others is illustrated. The explanation of stuttering in children and adolescents who have severe adverse effects from dealing with a stutter mentioned is explored during their existence. The impact of the stuttering condition on the parents and sisters of children who stutter is also discussed with interesting studies about the sense of connection and confidence between young people and their parents. The family obligations and expectations for parents and siblings are stressed. The focus is also on dealing with a person who stutters from their life partner's viewpoint. Presumed quality of life is discussed through unforeseen variations between the adult's quality of life and the expectations of the spouse of the individual. Eventually, there is the potential for a new appreciation and engagement strategy for people who stutter.
