Hi! It's me again. What Shel said, I know it's a very common situation (unfortunately), but as my parents are deaf, too, I still find very hard to understand why hearing parents refuse to learn Sign Language. My family aren't perfect, we argue quite a lot, but I sense there's closeness, no one is isolated, we always know what the other one is saying. So, excuse me for my naivety, I'm not used to that.
And, to come back to topic, returning adopted children because of deafness is maybe the best, as it's said on this thread, better than live with such parents who can't love someone only for a stupid disability, stupid because it doesn't prevent from loving and supporting you, it just hardens a bit the communication, but with some effort (the same as with any other foreign language or even easier than learning, for example, Chinese)that can also be achieved.
I don't exclude the possibility of adopting a child, and I would be glad to adopt a deaf child. At least, I can take care of him, not like these candidate to parents (if they can't love a child with disability, they'll never be good parentes, just my opinion).
Sorry if I'm being tedious. I'm not talkative at all in real life, due mainly to my deafness. I'll try to tell less nonsense next time. Bye, everyone!
