Wow, you bring in a great perspective to this ongoing problem. I am willing to work with the hearing parents here. Just like that one hearing parent told me that I was generalizing when I made a statement about hearing people and I agree with him that I was wrong for doing that so now, if we can get the same respect too.
In that picture I posted with my deaf friends earlier. We were all at a party and one of our friends there has a CI. Nobody laughed at nor mocked at him.
