I wish I stood up to my Dad sooner....I regret that I didn't stand up against my Dad for wanting to learn more ASL....He didn't like the idea of his daughter using Deaf language...it's like he's ashamed that his daughter is actually deaf....I think he felt like I was "hearing" since I have CI and is speaking oral. But when he sees me Signing with my deaf friends...I think he sees me as "deaf" daughter and is ashamed of it.
