@WeatherMondacicci you should go and ask for CART that is where there is someone who types out everything that is said. much like captions for the class. if you need help with gettting it message me. i am deaf, i have interpreters but i have seen CART before at different events and it is really good. it will help you for college.

@comneard2 And I rather be hearing impaired than be visually impaired. Seriously, was that comment necessary?

I am hearing impaird, profound hearing loss from what my ENT told me since I can't hear anything below 90db. I don't have hearing aids at the moment as they broke and were crappy anyways, but the video is pretty much like how I hear, except that I can hear higher pitched voices than lower pitched voices. I haven't been able to go to class at college because I can't hear, and I don't know sign language.

I have been deaf since birth as well but I have a cochlear implant. Which works pretty good on hearing during daily basics, but my hard hearing does not effect me in any way. I play basketball (Like a normal kid) I also was the first deaf kid to play for my takle football team (which was really fun and competive) I make really good grades and sometimes being deaf is hard but do let it get to you. Ive had bullies in the past and all i think of them is that ill get much futher in life than them

Your son will be fine. There are deaf actors, doctors, lawyers, performers, businessmen, inventors...
People try to make it seem like deafness is such a horrific "disability"...but it's really not. Deaf people are only "disabled" by those around them...
I've been deaf since birth. Grew up Deaf. ASL is my first language, English is my second. I really have no problems either working or communicating.

No it does not. It just mean you have hearing lost- there- nothing wrong with your mind!
