The more time I spend at AD, the more questions I find I have. One thing I have learned about the Deaf Culture is that they don't feel their deafness is a disability. As a result, why do so many feel that they deserve the protections that the IDEA offer to people with disabilities.

Once again, this is one of those questions that probably sounds rude, but that is no way my intention.
