What I believe in is people making their own choices about Cochlear Implants. What I disagree with is children getting it. Usually parents don't recieve full information and children usually have not had a chance to try out different worlds and see what they want.
Why can't parents let the child try out oralism, ASL, hearing school, deaf school, hearing aids, no hearing aids and when they are old enough then let them make their choice.
As for adults, I totally respect their rights to recieve CIs. I have a hard time understandign why they want it because I know I don't even want to hear but I still respect them. If a friend of mine got it, I would still be their friend no matter what.
