    HAs (analog VS digital)

    I prefer analog for the more crisp sound of people's voices and the durability, but right now (huge highschool, ski slope loss) I need the background reduction programs, customizable sound, and FM system compatibility.

    Time to STOP! Enough is Enough!

    Women have just as much of a libido as men, maybe besides feeling like crap from periods. There's always going to be offensive content like this in the world really, the best most of us can do is just refuse to watch it.

    I need help with my thesis

    I think your research will be largely worthless if you attempt it without thoroughly understanding Deaf culture. That said, a few things I can think of off the top of my head that are large factors (no CI here) Time of becoming Deaf (etc. born Deaf, lost suddenly, lost progressively)- Many...

    We really can't help without more info on your situation (nearby Deaf community, support, career/higher ed etc.) but at eighteen it's your decision. Don't base it off of what hearies feel though unless you trust that they understand the whole thing though.

    Could legal marijuana save California’s economy?

    I actually have never heard of the positive effects of it outside of people with chronic pain and et cetera, but the negative effects are quite insignificant outside of fertility so.... I doubt that legalizing it and taxing it will help their economy/deficit. By the time it ever got through...

    Going crazy! Help me find HA

    Your loss isn't great enough to justify a CI. You'll definetly need a digital HA, I believe Naida would work well (especially with the high frequency loss performance). The open fit HA allows people with greater hearing in some frequency to hear the sounds naturally/augmentated by the HA...

    The Sun is a pretty right wing sensationalist paper, but it doesn't even need to be hyped up to go what the fuck? This is exactly the opposite of what I want people to say about my teenage years. :cool2: .....Maybe not.

    Is it ever ok for kids NOT to use ASL?

    Using a CI (or HA) doesn't give you the ability to communicate perfectly well again, as I'm sure just about every late-deafened CI user will say here. Once again it's just depriving them of a language they'll need to use if they want to communicate without barriers. I can't begin to describe...

    Do any of you get the "you talk too fast" complaint?

    I used to have the problem of speaking too fast as well as dropping a lot of sounds (s, z, l, f, and v's), but after my school dumped their poor excuse of a speech therapist (made me read poorly written poems and interrupted me every time I made a mistake) and replaced her with a new one who...

    Czech Way

    The right thing to do and what is deserved are two entirely different things. I'd prefer heavy jail sentences for first time offenders and extremely prolonged sentences/life with liberal solitary confinement being used for repeat offenders.
