Her hearing status does not idenify her. Her personality and her heart makes her who she is.

My mom thought the same about me. She thought I was happy and well adjusted growing up. She was wrong...big time wrong. She missed all the signs of my struggles so that is why we, deaf adults, try to tell the parents to watch out for those signs. Up to you parents to keep them in mind or just disregard our advice and experiences.
