    My view on sign language/non sign language with CI.

    If I was you, I wouldn't go against the mother's wishes and be sneaky behind her back. If you have a problem, go talk to her. Don't take your frustration on the child. I don't think I like it too much if the school went against my mother's wishes and send me to a deaf school if she feels...
