That is horrible. It's like a hearing person saying they don't feel natural around deaf kids. But you illustrate a point regarding rejection from some extremest in the D/eaf community that some with CI's experience........I remember holding a boy that had a CI who was bawling and it just didn't feel right to hold him with a CI sticking out.
My first thought was...."This is unnatural." Then my daughter came over and held her as well which felt perfectly normal.
I'm sorry but anytime I go into a room with children that have CI's, my first thought is, "Aliens"--like the movie.
