It was said that no one wanted to be the first to step up and be honest about their feelings. Allow me to refer back to post #168 and this quote:
Well, let me be the first hearing parent to say it. "I was devastated when I found out my son was deaf. I did not want a deaf child, I did not plan for a deaf child, and I did not know what to do with a deaf child." That is a normal human reaction, and one that all hearing parents have. The question is not whether they have such a reaction, but whether they can honestly admit to that reaction in order to deal with it.
That quote is my own.
