Assuming the adult has no physical impairments, I don't think that a speech impediment should be that hard to overcome. I think it's a choice.
FTR, I'm talking about those that say, "dowwa bill", "mawaige", or slurs, or has those annoying "sssss" when they say words with and "s" in it, or talks like Daffy Duck or Elmer Fudd.
Am I the only one that thinks this?

I didn't think a lipse was a speech impediment? I thought stuttering was. Maybe I'm wrong. I would think it would be easier to get over a lipse than stuttering, because stuttering is more of a psychological thing rather than a physical thing such as a lipse.
