its life i'm afraid, i would try to look at it in a different light (as frustrating as it can be). You know your no different (besides being Deaf/deaf as i do not know your condition) then anyone else but you can still communicate like everyone else, even if its different. i can see your point...
I am a Student at university who is looking for a Deaf/deaf friend to sign to as i am required to sign with someone from the Deaf/deaf community for x amount of hours. I know ASL (im slow though and still learning but passed beginner), need someone who has Skype and yah. thanks in advanced.
