I merely said you remind me of my mother because she is a teacher and a mother as well. When I went to school, it was full of bullshit, but when I go to family, there's no bullshit. Just us trying to understand each others and that's love.
The last 30 years didn't stay the same in education. 30 years ago, my high schools I went to, I went to two, they had no programs, no classes to teach any sign language until I came, I explained how it COULD be easy for those to understand a life of the disabled, I didn't say deaf, I said disabled people. Sign Language could be the KEY to communicating with people who hates the sound because it's simply too loud. Today, my high schools I went to, now gives classes to teach sign language and social life of the disablities. Because the family of the students might have sibilings that is disabled and they really don't know how to do crap with them but no more of that. It all changed.
Truly, we, deaf, have it easy while the rest do not.

Oh, sure....you were single handedly the impetus for a reform in deaf education. And A.G. Bell taught Helen Keller sign language, too.
