Other thing is.. Hearing people are making money on us for years and years. Most of us cannot afford to buy everything we need. Why bother to charge us a very high price for those accessories. You give them a chance to become rich while their attitude are still prejudice, second class citizen, discrimination, ignore our ASL needs, Deaf rights that ADA is not working so well for us deafies in usa. Too many deaf oralists with HA and CI dont have a good job so why is that?? I know why? Because we still dont understand the concept of english written or language from the start while we were tooo busy to learn how to speak and listen those devices that doesnt make us understand you everything without ASL. We miss out a lot many ways since we are not a perfect lipreader 100 percent as you think we can hear and speak as a functionally hearing. SCOFFS!!. That s a big lie to many parents who are very innocent and make their mistakes that is too late for them to prevent their d/Deaf children from damage their own property body especially CI interfere our d/Deaf adaption in very young age. So they took ASL away from us deafies and and our rights.. I just dont understand this anymore.
Many things are not necessary and wasting money to spend on it. however I do not need to have too many things that makes them rich. They are still prejudice / discriminate toward us that it doesnt make any sense.. Thats why I quit everything that I dont have to support hearing people to become rich and take advantage of us deafies.. I am not licking my own lollipop as of u know what i mean. I prefer the natural methods than having many artificial materials to depend on too much that doesnt help you to adapt your own deafness from the start.
ASL does help me to understand it clear with body language/ facial expression/ with a emotional tone while hearing people can tell the difference in their voice tone while we dont and make them think that we are yelling or shouting that we did not on purpose, So thats how I feel abusive by these audist attitude people who tried to threat or harrass me or anyone who stood up for d/Deaf children s NEEDS and RIGHTS. In the past many ASLers were very successful on their jobs with or without orally speaking. So why take that away from d/Deaf chlidren alike me that it helps very much between Hearing and Deaf people.
