Sorry, I dont agree because I have seen too many chidlren who get little or no benefits from their CIs due to different factors so if a child is doing well with HAs, why take the risk? I wish you would work in a deaf program like I do so u can see how some children are successful with their CIs and how some are not. I dont think it would be right to risk the child's mild hearing loss and make them deaf only for them to get less benefits from their CIs than their HAs. Now, that would make a child grow up angry at their parents for implanting them when they had good hearing with their HAs in the first place.
