    SEE (Signing Exact English) is the best sign language for a child to start with..

    Cafe introduces sign language to residents

    No need to be cynical. Maybe the only way they can have a gathering at a small business is to have some sort of small monetary gain. Just like a place offering free wifi, but you have to buy a small cup of coffee. Nothing wrong with that as I see it.

    Around here some people use B handshapes at the side of your face (like your face is in a book). Personally the sign drives me nuts, so a lot of us juse use F-B.

    Mom of 3month old with hearing loss

    Do your interpreter usually does this?

    It doesnt matter. It is not the terps job to babysit or tell the student what to do, especially not at high school level. They are to interperet, thats it. Hearing kids screw off in school all the time. Equal treatment goes both ways.
