Most people do have unrealistic expectation. But I knew what I getting myself into when I got my implant. I knew there would be alot of static noises so that's why I keep wearing it despite how much I hated it. It is not perfect though. I still wear it because this is what our son is used to and I just can't cut him off without any other communication at the age of 8 year old. It will take awhile for both of us to really get a hang of ASL . But he is already signing , with fingerspelling and a few signs like dog, water, hungry, etc. to be because of few communication struggle.. he write to me too. But when I have it on, he sometimes have to repeat himself 5 or 6 times before I got what he is saying. I would stop wearing it, but this isn't the right time because our son need me.
