    The ex bashing/discussion thread

    Yeah...in many ways, the emotional abuse is WAY worse than physical abuse...it's one thing to say "my H beat the snot outta me the other day", but when you say "He yelled at me and told me I was an f'ing bitch", it sounds "mild" even though the reality is that it is WORSE than it sounds. It...

    The ex bashing/discussion thread

    Robin? I know it was a nightmare for ALL the kids growing up...my oldest son was VERY protective of me right throughout the whole time...and no, what I say are NOT excuses...if you have NEVER been abused by a man who is supposed to love you, and who brainwashes you, then you will NEVER know or...

    The ex bashing/discussion thread

    Robin? I understand your confusion as to why I stayed in such a horrible situation...I look back at the worst of those times, and I'm stunned too. But, the best way to describe and to get people to understand why abused women stay no matter HOW life threatening it is, is by pure conditioning...

    WOW!! I am so sory for hear of the bad experiences so many of you have had and are still having with your exes. I have a slightly different story in some ways... My H and I have been married now for almost 21 years. For 15 years, he was horribly violent and abusive. He did the whole...

    Your Opinion about Signing Songs?

    Reba? I sign the songs at church even when there are no deaf there, because it is the way I like to worship God...I feel like I express myself and my love, praise and worship to God far better in Auslan than I do in voice. I also do this to keep myself in practice and on top of things in being...

    Your Opinion about Signing Songs?

    Ah, but Reba...there are times where neither of the Deaf girls are at the praise and worship, and I will STILL sign the songs...THAT is my praise and worship to God...and in any case, I see my interpreting for the other deaf as not being ANYTHING about me at all...to me, it's about God and being...

    Your Opinion about Signing Songs?

    I interpret for the Deaf every week at my church. For one girl, I don't need to sign the songs into Auslan, bse she has enough hearing to hear the singing, and reads good English, so she doesn't need me to interpret. The other girl, however, is very profoundly deaf, can't hear the words, and...

    Bluffing...

    I've been told that ALL deaf get tinnitus-some degree of it anyways...I get it a little bit, but not so often that it annoys me. My oldest sister, who started losing her hearing as a teenager and now wears 2 HA's gets it really, really badly and it annoys her soo much. AuslanGirl :)

    My First Interpreter

    Well, I actually met my best friend because she is interpreter for the Deaf. We met at a Christian meeting where they gave a free dinner each Friday and had a church service afterwards. I met her there, and found out she knew Auslan. I only knew a little signed English and small amount of...

    It's up for debate, or is it?

    Ha ha! If I get into ANY alcohol, I start signing...and if I don't drink too much, my signing is better than when I don't drink...how on earth does THAT work??? LOL!! AuslanGirl :)

    It's up for debate, or is it?

    Hi Jillio! I have the exact same thing, only it took me quite a while to get my English brain out of the way to become fluent in Auslan, and to be honest, I still slip up. English is my first language, and I only started learning to sign Auslan nearly 12 years ago...I find it easier to...
