I get it. I am going through the same thing now. It is like whenever I talk about it to my friends/family, they think we are complaining or being sad about our situation. Like we are being unlucky facing difficulties. All they could say is "you are one of the smartest girl I have ever known"...

I live in a country full of them. Yeah they are even more annoying. For some reason mosquito like my face most; I wake up with bitten spot all over my face. Oh my, I hate going out looking looking that.-_- Between I am fortunate not to have bee stung....yet. That is probably why I am scared...

Confidence is the key. When you first meet the person, dont go with the thinkng " what if he/she does not want to talk anymore in future?". It is the main thing. And take pen and pad with you. If they dont get what you are saying write it over pad and show it to them and if you dont understand...

He is just two and half month; more space to observe. He won't suddenly show result;lol. How about looking at the option of learning sign language with him? What I have seen some babies start sign earlier than those babies who start to talk. But if you are looking for other option, you gotta...

My two cent You hit the jackspot on my life experience. the main reason why my parents did not put an effort on me to communicate; is because I put all of my effort and strength to keep up the conversation, and their happiness. I made sure that they are not missing out the joy having a deaf...

I have lived in a muslim country and saw many dog pets running around the cor niche(but though I did not see the dogs frequently but the numbers are growing at every years). I even have cuddle them. As much as I know, if the saliva fall on your hand or dish, then I have to wash my hand or that...

Oh, but you did have bad experience - the continuity of your access to communication in ASL was interrupted. You said she has bad experience being a deaf person, no she was not. From her post you should have understood by now....she had a bad experience forn being forced acting like a...

Hmm.... Mostly that during the time whenver there were group conservation, I so much wanted to hear what my classmate was speaking about, ugh...that was HARD to follow up what they were saying. I just nod and smile at them. But the positive part of this I no longer get involved in those group...

Oh sorry to hear that. Look like your dogs like your scent very much that it chews them.:D OOOWWW....So you are getting colourful ear mold? Be sure to post a picture of them once you get that....I want to see how does it look like, perhaps in future I might get like one. Similar occasion happen...

Uh Uh, I dont even want to get the idea of being a mother. I am usually the type when I like something very much, I never let it go.hehe.

sallylou, I know, he still sees me as a kid. I got that. I dont show any anger to him in any form(though i do get angry inside) I respect him as he is my family. I am just venting out my frustration here but I understand that. But he is stressing out little bit far.

Okay, I have a vent here Today was my advising and regristration on university that I was admitted. I went with my father. Okay, at every meeting with any staff or advisor, he just does not let me to talk or ask question to any of them at all. I had to struggle to ask question to them. Worst...

Yes, I too take offense from this. I am also a Muslim. You can generally make fun of terrorist,but to be directed at muslim, is not just fair.

drphil...do you mean that you use DEAF word for an actual complete silence?

Thank you for explaining. Hmmm...according to the defination above, I am more like a HOH,since I dont know sign language fully yet, and use oral most of the time. But still I like to use deaf word to explain myself. I feel whole when i consider myself a deaf despite my family like to label me...

It is beautiful! Ah! Daydream was a major part of my daily activities and still it is. And books! This is the only source that I could depend on. *sigh* What bother me is it will again in full circle once i will again mainstreamed in university.

Wait....now I am confused! What is the difference between deaf,Deaf, DEAF, and HOH? Hmm...if it is out topic...then sorry!

I like it. I am not that religious, but I do believe in God. I am actually grateful to God that He made me deaf; before I used to be VERY angry with Him for making me deaf, every time i encounter difficulties,I used to blame Him. But now I realize it was probably done for best for me and I am...
