I noticed that many hearing people don't to understand or want to understand our feelings. They think we are being sensitive about something that is sensitive to us. How I can get them be more understanding?

Not right! I have problems too. My family expected me to have my aids on all the time. Even one time I asked them to write it down, they declined my request. I am an adult too.

I see two different sides on this. Some said it hurt the deaf community but others said it voliate the freedom of speech. What are your thoughts?

Hello. I am currently transferring from VP-200 to Z20. ZVRS is coming to set it up on July 30, but I need a flash alert notification system before hand. Where can I get a good flasher system?

How is everybody summer? What are you doing for the summer?

It was sure frustrating but it always the parents decision.

Now I understand. Thank you very much.

My parents wanted me to have total communication.

I am sorry If I wasn't clear earlier. Sorry for the confusion.

U mean like group by disabilities in the school? Other words LDP is more of mainstreamed?

I knew nothing about Deaf Community while growing up. Only accesses that I had were resource room and notetakers.

They all hearing. I was in same room with all other hearing students including special ed classroom. No HOH or Deaf student in my class other than me. :-( As for LDP, same thing except it only for special needs students. Again, no Deaf or HOH in same class as me.

Thank you!

Language school is for people with different disabilities. I did however not saw or met many people who are either HOH or Deaf.

It not in the same community. Language school was in Buffalo area while hometown school was in the tiny village. Language school is really mainstreamed?

What you mean? Language school had many hearing people. There was some signing but not much. There was no ASL too. My hometown school was the same thing except it is a combination of non disabilities and disabilities students.

Now, I am confuse. I always thought I went to a mainstreamed school for whole life, but I did went to Language Development Program (LDP) school when I was 5 until 11. I am wondering if LDP is considered a mainstreamed school. What do you think? I just want some clarification.

I often wonder why NTID do not offer summer classes.

What you all doing for Mother's Day?

It would be nice if everyone care and be there for everyone when need it instead of fighting for it. Such a sad world that we live in.
