What state are you in? I'm in Colorado and I've never been required to wear my HAs while driving, even when I got my permit when I was 15. It says I have corrective lenses (contacts and glasses) on the back of my license and I'm required to wear those (but I've never been asked when I've been...

I have! And she's right. Speaking of attending teacher prep programs, teaching, being an early home interventionist, etc. I'm curious how you manage at least 2 full time jobs plus all these trainings that you say you go to, plus your supposed PhD program, plus commenting on here endlessly day...

So you've changed your view from saying you need to teach DHH kids to hear listen and talk as the only way to be competitive with their higher level hearing peers to DHH kids need to be given all the communication tools including ASL cued speech English etc to be successful. Wonderful we...

Even more desire both languages??? Isn't there a word for that? Hmmm... oh yeah I've got it, BILINGUAL!

OMG I hated SPED reading and speech. That plus how I talk .. got called a retard a lot. I was painfully shy until I was a teen I hated it.

I'm going to look at the Sonic Boom Ive been having to wake up at 3 am a lot and have been sleeping in my HAs, have the adaptive features on my phone flashing and vibrate then another stupidly loud alarm next to my pillow that wakes up all my roommates haba

Please stop lying. You dont have a masters. Here you go changing the subject. All I'm talking about is its not representative of all Deaf Aussie kods. I thought your proof was "it says first sentence its a population study" and I "need to learn to read." Just because you're hearing doesn't...

OMG. Just when I don't think you can obviously show your true lack of education you open your mouth again. A populaton study doesn't mean the entire population of somewhere or some group is involved, or anything else about the size It means that the sample group is taken from the general...

No. Just stop, before your hurt yourself. There's no way you have a masters or are in a PhD program if you can't grasp basic sample size explanations (or understand basic world geography). It's self selective, parents choose to enroll, parents that are disproportionately auditory/oral. There's a...

OMG that sounds like this professor! When I was kicked out of the program she said I should maybe take classes outside a college because I "just don't fit in the academic environment." Um right yeah not to brag but I went to an Ivy on scholarship, then started law school on scholarship and have...

If your friend's daughter is HoH there should be resources through the state to teach families. Depending on her age, I know in CO birth through age 3 are eligible for home intervention services through Child Find when they set up an ISFP. For older kids there's still services I would get in...

Do you have a BAHA or a CI? I have a BAHA and a BTE HA. Welcome!

I get horrible headaches and it makes me cranky and frustrated. A professor who kicked me out of the program I was in because of "behavioral problems" didnt believe me when I mentioned that as one of the problems being HoH causes and thats what led to a few of my supposed inappropriate behaviors...

welcome! Are you Deaf or hearing? i lived in osaka and kyoto for 6 months when i was young, like 7/8 years old because my dad was workimg there for over a year. i actually became somewhat conversational in japanese but no longer remember a single word except ichi-ni-sun (sp?) which for everyone...

Awesome I grew up in a predominately Mexican Spanish speaking area but Ive never seen or been exposed to MSL. When I taught the special needs kiddos in the Head Start preschool program all but 2 students came from Spanish speaking homes. There was a 4 yo girl with a CI I worked with, and we used...

Hahahhahaha.Okay, okay, I get it now. You've been messing with us the whole time. Well done. I mean you can't be serious when you say that... Australia has 22 MILLION people. That's slightly more than the state of Florida. There's not only 460 some DHH children in Florida. There's 18...

Look @Teacherofthedeaf this will keep going in circles forever at this rate. I'd be pleased to conclude this if one of two things happen. 1) Own your worda and your views. Admit that yes that is what you said and what you believe. i may vehimently disagfee with your views but will respect that...

That's odd because you have continuously mentiomed how DHH can only be at the level of their hearing peers by learning to hear. I'm sorry, I'm being incredibly facetious about only having audio at your conference.ASHA's EHDI at least makes an effort to include ASL and other visual methods even...

@Teacherofthedeaf BTW you must teach at a very unique school. You are able to post non stop M-F 8 am- 5 pm as well as many other times. At first I thought it was maybe Spring/Easter Break but its been more than a week. I wasn't allowed to have my phone out whem I taught preschool, not even at...

Aww bumbye. I actually never called -you- any of those things, I only stated a proven fact about academic performance levels. That said, doesn't it suck to have those things said to you especially when they're rationalized as overall truths and therefore okay. At least my chosen career path isnt...
