Interesting. I'm all in for "levels" if that means that those who are totally deaf, are "high level", while those with little loss are "low level". :D Thanks for bringing this up, something to think about.

Not for those of you who are emberassed to talk about sex: Effects of male circumcision on female arousal and orgasm Just a piece of skin that no one cares about?

Agree. It puts me off when western journalists interviews white locals in africa, instead of black locals. In defence of Lane, sometimes, an elite manage to listen to the deaf experience, and share it with the rest of the elite in their language, like Stokoe did. The elite before the 90's were...

See bolded sentence. The answer depends on your definition of deaf militants. Let's hear your definition of deaf militant.

It's a lot of whys' here. Is God forcing circumcised nudist sunbathers to hide their dick from getting sunburnt? A clever way to force Adam to dress?

Infernal affairs. Great Hong Kong movie. A lot of Hong Kong movies are a bit silly to westerns, but this one had great actors and a good story, IMO.

Good to know. As a kid, not much beat flushing HA's down the toilet :) Saying to a kid "you lucky bastard, you can hear some" is just so weird, but I'm sure some families are into stuff like that. In families with hearing and deaf people, it's not uncommon to find deaf people who are more...

I didn't like the idea of missonaries, until I discovered their bilingual deaf schools in the third world. The work they have done many places is amazing.. Good luck with your cambodia plans!

I've heard about deaf westerns who worked at a school in phnom penh. Perhaps the same school you talk about. It's impressive if they have the best teachers in cambodia. Missionaries? Just curious.

From what I've seen, some deaf people in the third world are really bad treated, and behaves like animals. Sometimes, people are too poor or misinformed to include disabled people. Oralism is still also very widespread in third world schools, and the overal iliteracy among hearing people...

It's nothing wrong with beeing deaf either, nothing wrong with throwing away that CI or HA, right? It's considered unhealthy to tell kids they are luck to be this or that, because that would only put pressure on kids to show happiness. Don't quite gasp the point with your point.

So true. Still, I feel that we are on the right track with more and more educated deaf people to speak up. Visited Cambodia not a long time ago, the most happy people I've ever met. Good pick!

And this continues with new generations... when will this stop?

It's a bit insulting comparing a language, ASL, with a tool, CI.

NP, we agree that we disagree.

Not everyone care about sound like you say. Don't know if it's a coindence or a new trend, but the last month I've met two other families that said the same as you. Not putting your choices over choices other parents do, and everyone is different like you say, but I applaud your effort to listen...

Good idea. *putting on some shaders to easier ignore the bright neon flashing*

Weird.. they'll use a trawler, search inside the fishes, and glue togheter the parts?

In the link you provided, in the quote above, PFH explains his position, and makes a question. You answered that question by saying it's your opinions, and didn't comment the part why you keep on make rude posts. You then demand an answer from him if you should stop contributing to AD. After...

Ok, no straw man, you win(everyone else, notice how Kokonut are trying to deny the existence of position A that he disorted into his position B).
