Cheri said:Sorry, I don't agree with you. You think that those who are deaf would not be successful in the world or allow to interact with the world, Only those who have hearing? Deaf people can function and interact socially in the hearing world. The only thing deaf people rely in the Deaf Community is when they want to socializing with other deaf people like them, to make friends to know one another, to share the same background experience, having a conversation. We don't need to depends only on the amount and type of hearing they need to have to allowing to interact with the world.
STOP USING THE LABEL, "HEARING" WORLD BECAUSE IT IS JUST REALLY CALLED "WORLD". It's REALITY! Geez.
I am deaf who is already successful and will learn how to hear someday later. I know we can be very successful but I know our chances will be better if we could hear and speak. That is all I've been preaching all along.
I don't like the size of the friends pool I have to choose from in the deaf world because the world is practically unlimited out there. I have awesome hearing friends that are more of my type and I sometimes have more fun with them than I do with my deaf friends.
I can't interact with the hearing people the way I wish I could but I can't interact with most deaf people the way I wish, too, if you get my drift.
