Just say, "Thank you, mother" and go on about your business. We have come to expect this condescending attitude from this particular poster.
Notice that she only came into correct a Deaf poster; not to post anything about her Deaf values. The same with drphil. He has no Deaf values as he is not a member of Deaf culture, by his own admission. BeachGal has no Deaf values. She has already stated that she is late deafened HOH with no affiliation to Deaf culture. See the pattern? A consistent attempt to make themselves feel superior to the Deaf by negating and correcting. It is a personality flaw. Just acknowledge it for what it is, and continue on with your business.
yup , i see that alot and it pisses me off, not only me, other members at the deaf club will say the same!
best advice they need is,
DUMP hearing values and start Learning what IS Deaf value , how? starting listening to Deaf people and this takes a Different Kind of listening, its called being humble and respectful to the mores and lores of Deaf Culture. To forget Hearing culture, its not a sign of weakness but one of integrity..
