    I have a question

    The way that it is coming across to me, (keep in mind I still consider myself new to this so don't burn me up to much :-) is that a member of the deaf community has to give the name sign? Yes? Obviously I am mommy and daddy is such which he actually refers to the car as mommy but whatever we are...

    Parents of a deaf student plan to sue SAU 16 for not providing an adequate education

    I really really REALLY do not want to mainstream my sons. I don't. From the stories I have read here, from everyones experiences it makes me ill. I don't want my children to go through anything bad or negative. But in my defense I see no other obstacle. I wanted to go back to that one thread but...

    best way to learn ASl language

    I went through lifeprint pretty fast. I agree about not having a big vocabulary. But signing savvy is my new favorite as well. But I just picked up those signing naturally workbooks and dvds and those are already priving to be really helpful.

    I have a question

    I would never tell my son not sign with his siblings, this to me is going to be their communication, but they are signs that his teachers are teaching him for his siblings and I didn't know if that was ok or not.

    July 4th 2012

    It's my daughters 7th birthday but my other daughter turns 3 on the 19th so we were thinking this may be a good year to do a combine bday thing and go take a week vacation to baltimore md to the aquarium and go to dc while we are there. Just a thought for now.

    I am so sorry you daughter said that to you. It was unfair and hurtful I can only imagine. My father requested to see the audiogram for my children before he would start learning sign....

    Color hearing aids/molds

    My son just picked out his first colored has this year. He went with black and green :-P But I have been eyeballing the oticon safaris and the more I see safarigirl post I have to say I am tempted to call his audiologist now.

    Take me with a grain of salt, if I say things that aren't, what's a good word??? acceptable. I am new here and just had a thought :-) I am a hearing mother of deaf children so I don't really know anything. Kind of coming in to it. Just wanted to express my excitedness for being here.

    I use sign with him and the other children as well. I still speak but I emphasize more on signs. We watch a lot of signing dvds and read a lot of books and I am trying my best to get it situated to where I can go to classes for it but right now I am stuck with learning on my own. I like...
