Please don't assume that.  I specifically pointed out twice that my opinion is based upon profoundly deaf children that can't hear within the speech banana even when amplified.  Further, I never mentioned anything about what type of families the child was in.  Finally, I rendered no opinion at all on what others should do, I simply advanced my view which is based upon my family dynamics.


I'm  unclear on how you concluded from my posts that I am advocating that all deaf and all hard of hearing children should be implanted.


Further, I'm not singling you out intentionally, so I apologize if you feel that way.  I was surprised to hear what you went through, that's all.  I'm sorry that you had to struggle for a long time.


As long as children are being educated and cared for, I don't care one bit whether a parent puts their child on a path of using sign language or uses an implant.  I would never tell someone they are wrong for not having their child implanted.
