The class I'm in right now is called Principles of Captioning.  It just slightly hits base with everything that we will encounter as being a captioner/CART provider.  For the past couple of weeks we've been studying deaf-culture, cochlear implants, the causes of being deaf...  My assignment from my teacher was to find challenges/obstacles that the deaf face.  I'm guessing I shouldn't use those words, but I don't know what other words to use.  I'm doing research in my book, and it said that parents who are deaf are happy to hear they have a deaf child, and if they see they have a hearing child it's the same "sadness" as if when a hearing couple has a deaf child.  Correct or incorrect?


Sounds like it may be incorrect.  Mind telling me why it didn't bother you?
