And many of them did not know it can led their child into have life long emotion screw up that need some help with professional mental health care. I have seen too many sad stories around me. Enough to spread another lies by their deaf oralists who refuse to sign but isolate themselves from both world, hearing and deaf. They are not 100 percent independent.

I am sorry Jazzy, I was not talking about anybody that was forced to do anything. I said "what's wrong with a person choosing what is best for them". As far as forcing someone to learn something I am not getting a clear picture of what you mean. Were you tied to a chair with toothpicks in your eyes to keep them open? Or is this just much like the education I attended? I don't quite understand. I was sent to school as a child and I had no choice on what I was going to be taught or how it was taught. In your view, was I forced. I am just curious about your thoughts on that. I will say that if you were forced by some sort of physical abuse, then that is wrong! I hope that was not the case for you. Lets say this is a perfect world and you are the one that can choose how a deaf child will be taught. What would you do? How would you teach the child to communicate and with what methods?
Thank you!!
