Yeah, I totally understand. I don't blame you for not handin' the sounds. I can't handle the sounds, either when I decided to quit wearin' HAs at the age of 11. Oh, yeah - that darn " noise " pollution thing I couldn't handle very well. I would imagine it as of today, the " noise " pollution is gettin' worse than my old days.

As a hearing person, I can honestly say you are right about this...

I am glad you are makin' a wise decision by leavin' your child alone, if your child is deaf. I agree ! That's MORE nature, I believe in. Bein' deaf is blessed !

Here's to being your natural self!
