Haha I'm not meaning to be!!! 
what I was saying got missed skipped ignored or misunderstood I think and then dismissed as "oh you're late deafened go back in your corner" 
Tx was saying it isn't tiring for everybody, I was agreeing with him. My initial point was it depends on HOW much you're having to rely on it, and not everybody relies in it to the same degree.
But just in case I'm completely misunderstanding....dhh is shorthand for deaf and HoH correct? The HoH kids may speech read, but not with same intensity as the deaf ones. I wasn't meaning to argue, just make a point, that no it's not the same for everybody.
But I will add that I don't see anything wrong with giving even the HoH kids ASL, and teaching in it. Just so we're clear I'm not making an argument FOR oral only education.
