What state are you in? What about Deaf camp? That would be a GREAT way to meet other dhh kids like you!

welcome!

his parents don't sign?!?!?!? OMG!!!!!!!!!!

Are there other dhh kids in the school? Not sure of his background but one thing that is REALLY important is the dhh specific social development, not just interaction with hearing kids. He needs to know that he's not the only dhh kid in the world.

Don't be nervous. I have friends who have relocated so their kid can attend and they ALL love it!!!!!

Oh that's AWESOME! Maybe you could attend Gally for college.... or there's MSSD for high school!

All this could have been advoided if Meredith had been hooked up with a deaf school, a dhh program and ASL from the get go!

Going to be DECADES until this is a reality.

Welcome! We need more deaf educators!

I cannot believe how slow this place is. I remember back in the old days when this place was rocking, and everyone was here. Hard to believe things have changed. Wish the old members would return.....

I've always wondered why the people random posting for a romantic partner don't ever think that they might find a serial killer or someone with narcisstic or borderline personality disorder

Have you thought about a CI?

Um this isn't new. It's just some arbitary improvements that don't even affect the functioning/ performance.

I seriously cried when I found that out.

YES exactly. Oral exclusive approaches train a dhh kid to be DEPENDENT on a device. That is CRUEL. Why shouldn't a dhh kid have the right to ALL the possible tools instead of being dependent on a device? The world is not a soundbooth!

Welcome!!! Yeah I wish the UK promoted something like a year at a deaf school for the dhh kids to work on their skills... Instead it's just Inclusion. Hope you find your BSL buddy!

I would think that TSD would be AMAZING. That plus the arts community would be perfect for her!
