But you got to understand that its not the methodologies that shows no improvement for the deaf world wide.

Every hearing loss is different and every child learns differently. There is no single approah for all just like rockdrummer stated and he's right.
For hearing aids, it may works for some and it also may won't work for others it is the same goes for cochlear implants. It does not mean the device itself fails deaf children or deaf adults world wide.
It all depends on the individual. (The person's hearing loss, the person's progress)
Its important to give those deaf children a fair chance to try each programs to see how the child will progress even if it is Oral, TC, Bi Bi or Cued Speech.
If you expected them all to be in a bi bi program then every deaf child should get a cochlear implant because its better than hearing aids, You see what I'm trying to say here?

I thought u were against the idea of oral-only programs since deaf children in those programs are not exposed to sign language?
