Hey all, long time no see! :lol: Enjoy! 24-month-old deaf child having a conversation. [VIDEO]

Like I said, I had NO idea she was deaf. I also mentioned that this was the "social" floor of the library where talking was permitted and lots of people interact. Furthermore, I stated that people coming up and asking/offering help was quite common and happens to me several times a day when I'm...

I've already decided I'll seek my advice somewhere else but, for the record (and using your analogy), it would be as if Rebecca had a car but shared it with her children sometimes because their own car didn't have the features they enjoyed. The children didn't mind (and in fact preferred) the...

And so be it, glad you guys were there to help. :roll:

Thank you at least for an honest reply, but: 1. If the girl thinks that by me asking if she needs help, I'm implying that she's stupid then she has self-confidence/social issues. I don't think anyone ever means that when they offer help. 2. I had no idea she was deaf and if I did, that...

This is the first legitimate response I've received on this site so when you say "maybe look around and read before making judgement"... I did. I read everything Rebecca and others have said and made my judgement that this is not a website I want to be apart of. I was labeled a troll and...

We (I) don't. Why would we? Hearing is just the opposite of not hearing. No difference really.

The fact that you think "Yes, but I don't need any help from your ears" is an appropriate response to a stranger trying to help you with your studies just shows what kind of person you are. Rebecca, I hope I never have to meet you or anyone like you because as of right now, I have no problem...

You have every right to prioritize whatever you feel is important but you make yourself and your community look selfish and rude when you act the way you do. God help any honest/innocent person that stumbles into your fortress here by accident hoping to get some advice.

I've already had several posts get denied when there was nothing foul in them. I'm moving on to another site or forum where the hearing aren't ostracized.

And your restitution is belittling me? I can't believe the people I've encountered on this website, it makes me sick. For all of you who think I'm trolling on a Saturday afternoon are crazy... I decided to go the extra mile for my girlfriend and try to better our situation but instead, I'm stuck...

Although she was cute, my intentions were genuine in helping her with her studies. And like I said, she could have simply denied the help and carried on but she brought her hearing situation into it, which I believe was uncalled for. I should also mention that this was the floor of the library...

I'm not even going to reply because my replies have already been denied. Clearly this website is a tightly knit group so when I offended Rebecca, I offended you all. Sorry Rebecca, please enjoy your TV room to yourself.

From the National Relay Service in Australia, for those of you who haven't seen it! Reminds me of how my girlfriend and I met. Quiet Signs of Love - National Relay Service

Why do you think I'm trolling? I came here to seek advice and learn to better handle my situation but I've been shown nothing but rudeness. My girlfriend is awesome and I do everything I can to communicate with her (just like she does with me) but it's difficult. I thought there would be other...

Wow, I'm so glad the hearing impaired people I've met in my life are nothing like this community. Do you people just gather around here and sardonically bash anyone who isn't like you?

My girlfriend is HoH and sometimes I find it hard to cope... though I would never tell her!

I find it funny how you are allowed to be rude to someone but the second someone does it to you, they're audists. I posted a valid story that sheds some light on the other side of the bridge and you dismiss it. You make it hard to accept the deaf/HoH community when you don't accept the hearing...

You have to be kidding me. That's the biggest slight I've ever got from someone when I genuinely responded to one of their problems. I didn't know there was a "Rebecca room" as my family doesn't put labels or ties on rooms like that. Everyone is free to share/come and go as they please. If...

Because there are far more hearing people than not, the deaf/HoH community will have more stories... but as a hearing person, I have one story of a girl who was quite rude when I tried to communicate with her. She was in the library and I noticed she was reading a psych textbook that I had used...
