I've tried to, however, I don't want to really push them away even further since it seems the fact that I can hear is what makes them feel like already against them. I mean, jeez, I'm looking up stuff online to try to understand this culture better and to be apart of it the best way a hearing person can be. I'm learning sign language(prior to Switched at Birth) for the sole purpose of IF I ever run into someone who is Deaf/HOH then they can be included too and not feel left out. It's frustrating to be seen as a "hearie" and not even be given a chance to show that I'm open and communicative.
is it POSSIBLE that you come off as creepy to them? just asking.
