    Starbucks sued for refusing to Serve the Deaf

    That's actually pretty sad.Even fast food restraunts have a section about serving a person that is deaf or HoH. In general, it's about being respectful and unfortunately IMHO most people do not know manners and have the awareness of what respect really is.

    My encounter with JW at door today...

    Thankfully I do not answer the door. I know there are both JW and Mormons that go door to door around here. I am sure there are other I have just never taken notice. I've only answered the door once and I was too young to understand what was going on. -Shrugs-

    My encounter with JW at door today...

    Official AllDeaf Switched At Birth Discussion [tv show on abc family]

    I am a little surprised by episode 14. It has a lot of twists. But it remeinded me a lot about this site and opposite sides of the spectrum. The last scene really blew a hole in everything. I can't wait to see what actually happened! I WANT TO KNOW!

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    If she knows of your situation, she should not have burst out like that. Even more so, because you asked if anyone was bothered by it.
