There is enough going on without this added problem. I hope that everyone in the family discusses what is happening so the other kids understand and find ways that they can become more involved with their sister. Do her brother and sister sign?

Thank you to everyone for your advice and help. I have brought my daughter home, and she is very happy and doing VERY WELL in school also! The school was giving me a hard time with her staying with my family there at my choice. My daughter is very happy now all the time. She's in a mainstream school that has a deaf education plan, and shockingly the program has been in place for 30 years!!! No idea at all why I've never been told about it and I've asked many of times if there was something else that I could do or somewhere else I could take her to get her the help she would need. I was always told she was fine. ( That's in the mainsteam school she was in before I moved to the area of the deaf school ). The deaf school had told me they had nothing here also to help her. Seems to me there's just way too much lack of communication between school systems and school boards with providing information for kids in need of any kind of help. None of this has made any sense to me at all. But we're not going to let this die here. Something needs to be done about this, Lord only knows how many other children have been put in the same situation as me and my daughter, and this has really been unacceptable!
Thank you all again for all your help, support and advice, both for and against. It's helped me get through the times until I had this resolved.
