Respect is earned, not taught, or demanded of someone. Part of the problem is awareness. When one does not understand where you are coming from, it's hard for them show another the respect they deserve. I fully believe this, but also see that today's society has gotten to the point where...

Lots of luck in your move!

Me, too!

Congratulations, Mrs. ;) Your son is gorgeous!

Debatable. I've a feeling your opinions have become your truths. Anyway - as for accent reduction - I'm told I sound British at times, and others have told me that I'm also guilty of "adopting" brit-speak at times, but I simply just blame that on the few friends I have from the UK that I...

Yeah - I agree...it's all very sad....I'm sure the family is hurting very deeply, regardless of what may or may not have happened in the past. It's never been proven - but she will and probably has been judged by the only one allowed to judge her, and that's....Bruce Almighty. My thoughts...

Neecy... *bringing finger to nose* You got it.

That's funny you should say that. Really. No one would have expected it.

I have no idea what's happened, either...but if you're getting upsetting PM's, discussing it with Alex or a moderator might be the best avenue for you to take.

You certainly can count on me to come up with things that may or may not prove thought-provoking. ;) Ask away, Rose!

Of course. ;) I do suspect though, that it's time for a new avatar. Now that I've re-acquired Photoshop onto my computer, I think I'll go play a little bit.

Allow me to clarify this for you - I'm sorry if I was in any way unclear. :) It's been pre-determined by certain member(s) that an "audist" is one who simply does not agree with some of the (going out on a limb here) militant ideas that are being circulated nowadays...ideas that they...

You ain't alone in your place on the classification chalkboard that some members of this forum seems to have adopted, Gemtun. I'm sure I'm just as much an audist if not more of an audist as you are, based solely upon my own decisions. Unfortunately, though, where there's sour-minded...

:hug: coloravalanche, sorry to hear that you went through this. I did as well - junior high was around the time I was 11-12 - the kids were mad cruel to me as well. :( I think that ALL deaf folks know somewhat that they're really never going to be a part of the hearing community. I guess...

Wish I could make it. I can't, though - due to have a baby in the first week of July. LOL. I'll be there in spirit, though - hope everyone has a good time!

You're referring to ONE owner/manager. This does not necessarily mean that they all operate in this manner.

Congratulations, Nesmuth - you've made the poo list.

I wasn't aware that Looney Tunes were edible?

Ohhh...interesting thread...my three fight constantly. As a deaf parent, I miss out on a lot of what's said...and like GalaxyAngel said, I can only ASSUME at one point, who started what. All three are capable of throwing their own punches and they'll do so when the opportunity permits, and...

LOL, Kalista...more power to ya if you decide to go that route. ;) I'd be curious to see how it all turned out.
