Stuttering Stanley was originally brought up in the movie “The Sixth Sense”. The teacher had a stutter when he was growing up and used to be called “stuttering Stanley” and bullied by his peers. During the scene in the movie a boy in his class who can talk to spirits finds out this information from the past and begins to shout ‘stuttering Stanley’ in class because his teacher acts passive-aggressively towards him in class. The teacher seems very shocked and anxious when the child begins yelling this, and he begins to stutter in front of his class.   The term’ stuttering Stanly’ in this movie scene tells us the bullying and hardships the teacher must have gone through as a child as he was made fun of by his peers for stuttering.  It also shows us how deeply rooted with emotions stuttering may be as the teacher was not stuttering until he was reminded of an emotional event and his stutter seemed to reappear again, as he was having a difficult time dealing with the emotional stress.
