Honestly, I hate the idea of arranged marriages because my mother wanted to get one for me. She tried to one of her friend's daughter to pair up with me. I didn't feel like it because I didn't grew up in China. So long story short, my mother gave up after I wasn't that interested in marrying...

Honestly, I dont think most parent wouldn't care about this if they could get their child to hear. I'm sad to hear this. But there cannot be a progress without prices. This seems to be our price for getting CIs.

Doesn't the 8th amendment cover this? It states that "no cruel and unusual punishment may be used" If so, technically he violated the constitutional right?

Than it is a good thing that this school district must pay. Slash some of their budgets for unnecessary things like sport teams and events.

Hello, I am going up there for the EYF. I'm interested if anyone here is going too.

Can't you get a light signal that is tied into the security system. I know of someone that does that. She is deaf and uses the light to help her know if something is going on. Like green is for doorbells, red is emergency and yellow is warning.

Hahahaha! I love that comic! I grew up reading it a lot!

You could try iPhones. They might be doable. I use them to communicate with my friends and the speaker quality isnt that bad. Plus it's easy for first-timer to get into the environment without any problems

Hi1 I am too, 16 years old! Although I'm turning 17 this June. Unfortunately, I don't have Skype.

You know, Sometimes I wonder if I would have been better off in a deaf school since it would be easier for me. I know I might have a harder time adjusting since I haven't learn ASL until recently(I learned it years back, but I forgot it when I went mainstream and I'm trying to learn it again.)

I'm sorry if your experience sucked. I really like being in schools with my friends.

If I don't count since I am still in high school, you don't have to read mine. #1. For all my life, I have been communicating orally with my family and parents. My dad and I have been trying to learn ASL so that I could adjust to the deaf community better later. 2. I currently love my school...

This is really true, for me and couple other in school. A lot of the deaf students in my school tend to be academically strong. BTW Dhh means deaf?

I am sorry if I was being rude, I should have not said that and I realize that there was a time when deaf people were being forced to do one thing and only this. I am living in a world where I didn't grew up and went to a deaf school. All my life, I have been mainstreaming.

Hi! Even though i registered couple months ago, I decided to be open today and introduce myself despite the lateness. My name is Bryan Yun and I go to Rockville High School! I am a sophomore. I would like to know more about deaf community!

To be honest, I don't think you understand the idea of mainstream. I like being in mainstream school because, how am I suppose to know anyone who is deaf in my family. I am the first and will probably be the last in my time within my family to be deaf. Unlike other deaf families where deafness...

I believe I can help you with this area, I am a deaf student attending Rockville High School, which is the main school for the DHOH program in Montgomery County, Maryland.

True, last year there was this company that said that they would guarantee me a scholarship in exchange for a yearly fee of 10 dollars. I didn't do it cause it sounded too good to be true. As for the NHS, it the real thing as the teachers handed it out and I had a meeting with my counselor.

Hello! My name is Bryan and I am profoundly deaf. I was born that way and I am currently in High school. So nice to meet you all!

Basically, I am at a mainstream school on the East Coast and I got a letter of eligibility for the National Honor Society. I was wondering if I should do it since it will help me with my transcript when I go to college. I was wondering if it would be a good thing for a deaf student to have.
