It's easy to check if the CI works. Parents have a separate wire with earplug to see if it works. And when not, the audi would quicly find out.
Sounds to me the kid is just not motivated to hear.
But, at 9 years old, I would press to keep trying it..... money normally works

I was talking about young children, implanted before they learned speech..
You notice how lack of information causes confusion?
