I seen people who desperate to make sure their child is never exposed to silent (their deaf side). They would even waterproof their child's processor when go swimming. They would even keep them from sports because it would mean taking off his processor (and yes, I know, they can play sports with it which still apply to making sure they wear CI at all time) ... instead another method of communication like ASL. The only exposure to deafness they have is usually at bedtime. Which is scary because there are abusive people out there somewhere who might whip their child for not wearing their CI.
There's several reason why they do this, one is to help with their language, but I still think it all come down to fixing. Rather is it fixing their language or deafness... These people who make sure their child is hearing all waking hours, I wonder if they will seek stem cell cure in a heartbeat so they never have to deal with deaf issues.
