    CI users and the Deaf community

    That makes sense. No community wants to accept a parent who insults them!!! And yeah, of course the Deaf community could only accept the child if he/she is taught ASL. That also makes sense... I think it would be really scary to be a child with a CI and not know ASL. What if the CI...

    CI users and the Deaf community

    As a hearing person, I've been reading on here and learning a lot. I really appreciate being allowed to sort of join your world. Today I saw a post that disturbed me... from what I understood, it was a hearing mom of a child with a CI. She talked about her child learning speech more...

    Father shoots daughter’s laptop after disrespectful Facebook post

    As the resident social work student... Unless the school, family, or neighbors had reported concerns about the father, I would not investigate that. I would be glad that a parent cares enough about his child to teach her boundaries, and that her actions have consequences. Also...

    Facebook Parenting: Troubled teen. (did the father overreact?)

    It was a little extreme, but my husband would totally have done the same thing. I would not have used a gun... I would have sold it, and used the money for a spa treatment for the stress she was causing me. :giggle: I say justified. I would, however, question how a person who shoots a...

    You use that for WHAT?

    I have a pattern to use to take old pop/beer cans and make them into purses, hats, etc. I just need something to cut them with. Hubby lost the wire cutters in our last move. :(

    You Tell Me.

    I'm hearing, and yes, I would be sad if my child is deaf. I would be sad because I know that not everyone in my family would learn ASL, and maybe my baby would miss the fun of chats with my favorite aunt or have trouble communicating with Grandma. I would be said because my friends don't know...

    American kids denied food stamps in Alabama under immigration law

    They are American citizens, just like every other American citizen. You can't deny them food stamps just because you don't like their parents. If you really are serious about the problem, start talking to local politicians about getting serious about REAL fines for companies hiring illegal...
