Ok, let's say that theoretically the woman is unable to have an abortion. If she does not want the baby chances are she will either try and get an illegal abortion OR will not take care of herself during the pregnancy. Yes it is her "fault" for getting pregnant but are the pro-life people going...

I think maybe you need to get your eyes checked. You've been provided the empirical data and quantitative at that. There is obviously no point in providing you with the research when you refuse to read it and see what it's saying. loml, Cloggy, keep posting the information when you find it...

DragonYoga, All the information you are requesting is available in Cloggy's zip file. I am very aware of biases. You will always find biases in research, people do research in what they are passionate about and will always have some sort of vested interest. That is why you examine...

jillio, I'm not going to play that game with you. You pulled out a very small sample of what Cloggy provided. Likewise, none of those were the longitudinal studies you were claiming were non-existant. You have been provided over and over again valid research, refuse to adress others points...

You asked for longitudinal data, you were provided with a sample. Read it and you will see that you have made a mistake with regards to "positive effect". Once again, I know it's only 7 studies, but like I said before, what Cloggy was so kind to provide to you was not a comprehensive list...

Dear jillio, It is quite obvious that you did not read the entire zip file as there are mentions of at least 7 longitudinal studies identified as such in the abstracts. Perhaps it would be beneficial to thoroughly read the research that Cloggy has posted. He has not supported your position at...

I have responded, numerous times, to research pertaining to various claims made regarding CS and will not be recapitulating those posts here. I have also examined, and made numerous posts, regarding ASL. I have even found, posted, and attempted to debate the research and common-sense based...

You seem to be a little paranoid. Perhaps you don't like people who can see through all your psycho-babble and beautiful use of fallacies. You are more than free to think what you wish regarding myself. Just because I don't post in every thread on this forum does not mean that I don't read them...

No jillio, I think maybe you are the one that needs to "get it". We are talking about acquiring English. What you posted had nothing to do with acquiring English, you posted something about communication. You constantly try to de-rail all of loml's postings, even when provided with the...

Actually, the only mention of sign with regards to deaf children of hearing parents, is in the first sentence of the first paragraph, stating that deaf children of hearing parents are not fluent in it. The rest talks about early intervention, it does not specify what kind of interevention. If...

Beautiful example of how ASL may not be the best choice for a hearing parent with a deaf child. You would not want to delay the child even more by trying to learn a new language while at the same time trying to communicate in this new language with your child. This is great support for how...

DragonYoga, loml has not said that CS itself is a language, they have said that it is a mode of teaching English to deaf people and as such could be used in a bi-bi program as a method to teach English (which is a language). It takes time for anyone to become fluent in anything, ASL...

It says nothing about interpretation. It says instructor. Besides, there is not interpretation necessary, there is no change in language, just the mode in which it is being communicated. This is referred to as transliteration, not interpretation. What are you referring to with regards to...

I have 101 posts and I still can't pm. What's with that?

See my edited reply to your edited post. The portion you have bolded is not my first post in the thread
