Once they achieve their goal of getting every deaf baby/child implanted you can say bye, bye to sign language.

Wait, can the implants be turned on and off?

[BrittyN89]

@LaikaCameBack yes there is a device that magnetizes to your head and when u take it off it goes back to where u cant hear its kinda an advantage u can once again turn off ignorant people

[Stefbusta]

oh thats amazing! he's such a little cutie pie too! god bless

[Roseanneely]

My favorite part was when he told his dad to "turn football off!" Hes a smart boy who is learning to navigate his world! Congrats!

[tempt4tion]

truly wonderful video! and I have 2 boys who at that age sounded just like him! I understood everything he said! some people just try to find the negative in everything-so just ignore them. 

[texaschick1111]

I'm am so happy to see these videos of the success of cochlear implants! I am 15 and fluent in sign language and i think that this so amazing! Congratulations! He is just precious!!

He is way too cute and the ending was so sweet. For only have the implants for 18 months, he seems to have picked up on so many words. He truly seems like a really smart kid. That ending really gets me though, he's dancing too the music. So sweet.

[papastiffy]

the ending is sweet, "im dancing to the music"

=]

[djgamer0911]

Such a cute kid! When I have kids I can only hope that I can raise him as well as you have.

[SyasyaAdlina]

"oops-ear off" HAHAHAHA. :) So Cute!

[AshlynLeigh]

Its too great that doctors have thought of this device. It gave this boy an easier life, and hes too cute!

@eddythehunn You're obviously a vile, uneducated person that doesn't deserve a response, but I'll just point out for the others that you clearly have no idea what a "normal" 2 year old sounds like if you think he sounds "like a retard".

[alecolantuono]

@TurnOnMyEars Congrats from Argentina you have a nice & smart son. I have a 2 1/2 year old son, that was implanted 1 year ago, and it`s amazing how his life changed, it just opened up a world full of possibilities. It`s such an amazing feeling to see his progress. I cannot understand how people can even question the benefits of CIs, but you know what, it doesn`t matter, because by the end of the day, we get back home, and our sons come to welcome us with a big smile, and words (lot of them)

[specialedd13]

@eddythehunn you're accusing a two year old baby of talking like a retard?

[TheCheerleader24]

he is so cute! :)

[bandiadubh]

that is fantastic!

[stanselmdoc]

He is just so beautiful.

[ccragun]

He is a doll, congrats on his success!
