Are oral dhh folks hypocrites?

Rose, that's not a stupid question at all. The literacy rates of deaf children continue to level off at 3-4 grade. There's really no place for egos in this. I'm sorry if I'm coming across strongly to people, but attitudes have got to change on both sides. There is no right and wrong, it has to focus on what works for a child.

And literacy rates will continue to go down as long as the focus is on oral skills rather than on stron L1 language.
