    yourchildren can sign help theparents are deaf

    I think that it is just too much pressure on a child to be relied upon for interpreting, and it also distorts the parent/child relationship. Your child should rely on the parent and not the other way around. Also there are too many issues of an adult's life that children should not be made aware...

    Etiquette

    That is a tricky situation. I am hearing also and the thing is you can listen to someone's conversation without anyone knowing you're doing so. But you have to watch someone sign, so they certainly may know you're "listening in". I'd suggest to be very subtle and casual about it and most...

    How good your eyes vision is?

    Umm, I don't think that's a test for your vision. I think it's more a test for your heart!

    Phone rudeness

    I think it depends on the operator too. I've had some that sound obviously bored and monotone in their speaking which might lead some people to think it was salesperson or even a recorded message. Some have friendlier voices, which are better for relaying conversations.

    Phone rudeness

    I'm hearing and the first time I ever got a relay call, I was confused and didn't know what it was for. Luckily, the operator explained it nicely to me, so I didn't hang up. But I can guess a lot of people might just hang up if they don't know what it is for. Now recently, I've seen TV...

    question about interpreter

    I think that's terribly rude. I'm hearing, so can't really say much in the way of interpreters though. But imagine if someone said a word I didn't recognize. I wouldn't just say bluntly, "That's not even a word". No, I would say something like, "I'm not familiar with that word. What does it...

    Family Guy strikes back on Fox...again.

    I love Family Guy! I watch all the time on Cartoon Network. I just think baby Stewie is hilarious, especially the one where he's afraid of Santa Claus.

    Anyone watch Soaps on TV??

    I love DOOL and Passions too. I always like the evil charachters best though! I love Sami and Stefano and Kristen (she was few years back). I just wish they'd get to the point with the Island storyline. I'm losing interest quickly! On Passions I like Kay and Beth. I just like the scheming...

    Did your Child(ren)....

    Kids are too funny! I remember one time my daughter went outside in the midst of summer and said, "Boy mommy, it is hot and spicy out here!". Then once she told me about a girl at school that got headlights. She meant head lice!

    Pretend Friends....

    My daughter is 7, but she has had an imaginary friend since she was 2 or 3 named Ducky, who is a duck- of course! Sometimes Ducky misbehaves and I have to throw her out the window, but she always seems to find her way back.

    I have to take

    Myabe you could ask around and see if a lot of people prefer a certain professor. Then take a class with that professor. Sometimes if the professor is incredibly dull, you will have a hard time in the class. If you have a good professor who is interesting and fun, the class will be more...

    Introducing myself

    Hi, I was just lurking here for a bit. Guess it's a bit rude to lurk around without intorducing myself though. I'm hearing and found this site in a search for Deaf Culture. Up til recently, I honestly didn't know a Deaf Culture existed, but now I'm glad to know more about it. I'm taking...
