Please wait until they are finished. I feel more respected when people wait for me to finish and they don’t finish sentences for me. I’m going to say what I’m going to say, I just need a little more time. I also find stress makes stuttering worse. Sometimes I feel bad when people get impatient or if I feel they think I’m less intelligent. I would rather not have people finish sentences, even though people usually mean well when they do this.
