After yesterday's bashings with some of these parents, I really seriously believe that those parents have no respect for deaf people without CIs. It seems like they have such a hard time believing that deaf people DO FINE without CIs and it seems like they want to hide any bad stories relating to CIs so they bash anyone who starts such threads. It is interesting that many of us without CIs have come to the parents' threads about their own children with CIs and gave them support but yet they tell us that our negative stories are BS or accuse us of anti-CIers which is not true. Something is funny with the picture here? It is that attitude that I really really hate and I will not respect those who have that attitude that CIs are the answer for EVERY deaf person. If it was, none of those deaf kids with CIs would still have a need for a visual language...geez!
They patronize me so I am just venting here cuz all my life I had hearing people patronize me cuz they looked down on me and then here this happens again. No...f*ck that! I have come a long way from being put down and it aint happening again. I cant believe that they are so blind on what they are doing. It is unbelievable.
Now, I feel better.
