My dad got Into a fight when he was young and got hit in the ear which made him deaf in that ear. His other ear has gotten worse over the years. He bought hearing...

    I'm hearing, learning ASL, and am a bit confused...

    True. But a lot of time a group of individuals who share a common factor often share a similar opinion in regards to what links them. I'm not saying that is always the case, but I've seen it happen before. I'm not saying I'm right or you're wrong, I am just saying my thought behind that...

    I'm hearing, learning ASL, and am a bit confused...

    I meant a consensus on deaf forums. I do want to learn. I am not a pessimist or anything, but I do get discouraged if I'm really excited about learning about something and I hit a road block. In my ASL courses I have 3 books that go along with it (I can't remember the titles), but I do better...

    I'm hearing, learning ASL, and am a bit confused...

    Before I start I would like to state that I am being genuine, and I am not trying to offend anyone or step on toes. So I recently signed up for online ASL courses. It's harder than I though it would be. I thought it was mainly about the signs alone (I'm not deaf so I had no way of knowing)...

    Hearing girl looking for deaf or HoH friend!

    Hey! My name is Jen and I am 24 years old. I grew up in Chicago, IL and from age 12 to 21 (when I moved here to Arkansas) I was a bit of an angsty, socially awkward individual. Moving to the country really made a difference, I always hated the city and the way I lived my life reflected that...

    Teaching a deaf puppy ASL?

    She is a strictly outdoor dog. I have 2 crazy indoor dogs and the parents say no more dogs inside. Maisie currently has an extra large covered kennel outside (not a crate, but a kennel), and I'm looking to add at least one more to it. When she is out of her kennel she has 3 options. I take her...

    Teaching a deaf puppy ASL?

    I am a hearing person and I recently discovered that my 4 month old puppy is deaf. She does not respond to any sounds. Never has. Just vibrations. I know a very small amount of ASL but I am studying it and hoping that I will be able to "talk" to her and be successful in training her using ASL...
