Ay, there's the rub. Your concern is what it takes for a deaf child to be an oral success. The concern of advocates for Bi-Bi are concerned with what it takes for a child to be a success academically, socially, vocationally, and personally. Quite a different situations. We see deaf children as holistic beings with many needs. You see them as ears and a mouth.

And here you go with the contradictions again. First CS is not a tool for speech, then it is a tool for speech.
