Nothing. I am by no means an expert on Deaf schools. It's just that in my particular case, my mom just didn't like Clarke at that point, and Clarke's assessment of me started a chain reaction that lead me to have an oral only education. Is being with other deaf kids a higher priority than the quality of education and development? A family member of mine moved ALL the way to St. Louis from Miami to go to a good deaf school because his mom did not like the deaf schools in South Florida. Anyway, I am getting off topic here. It just seems that theres too many judgments being made too easily based on a few facts (i.e. sending child to oral only, implanting child, child does not know other deaf kids, etc). It seems that there's so much more to it than that.
