I thanked my parent tons for give up their hometown to move to other state just for me to go to deaf school and they both learn ASL really well. They even have my young sister learn sign lauanage first before she learn how to speak. I was day student all my life and get all love and commuication from them.
I knew a deaf guy he got CI when he was 2 years old and he is suffer with sizures since that time.

I know there are many parents who choose CI to make it easier on their selves but not all of us are like that. I am taking every step to make my son bilingual as well as bi-cultural. ASL is incorporated into our lives just as much as spoken word is. My 2 year old who is hearing signs. We play games with voices off and just the use of sign.

They can play sports just like any other child. In fact the deaf school he attends has sports teams. By choosing the CI I am not taking away from who my child is, instead I am adding another element to who he is. He will be able to succeed in the Deaf world through the use of sign. As well as he will be able to succeed in the Hearing world. Do i think that if a parent chooses a CI that should be the end of it. No I think that that parent should encourage the use of sign.

I myself am a parent who choose CI for my son. Not only did I choose the CI for him I also choose to have him enrolled in the Deaf School in our area and I Also Choose for him to learn ASL. In fact I also choose learn sign myself and engage him and my family in deaf culture we go to deaf chats in our area. For those who haven't done their research you really shouldn't comment about the surgery. CI surgery is NOT brain surgery. Children with CI are not limited.

@goodgirlkay lol, circumcision and immunization has to do with health. Being Deaf is a culture! And not all of them sound "normal" you probably have researched the few "success" cases! It allows deaf children to hear sounds, it does not make them hearing.

@DaveASL If you wait too long the speech will never sound natural, it will have that "deaf" accent. Children who are implanted early sound absolutely natural and no one has any idea they are even deaf. As for your contention that parents shouldn't force a lifelong decision on their children, parents have been doing it forever. From circumcision to immunization, parents constantly make decisions in the best interest of their little children without their consent. That is their right.

Speech can also be learned if implanted after. Starting out growing up with sign language and then being implanted may cause a slight delay, but the end result will still be the ability to hear and eventual speech. It just could be a few years later than it would be. That is better than forcing a lifelong decision on someone without any consultation.

@DaveASL Maybe a CI is a good option for someone, fine, it is their decision. But to have one FORCED on you is another. Also, the attitude many hearing individuals who believe "just implant them and let them all be normal!" is sickening.

@goodgirlkay erm no.. I saw no lies here... There ARE slight risks with CI just as there's any risk with any kind of similar operation. That's like telling someone with a metal implant in neck or joints he'll never have any slight risks. In this video there is no DEAF vs HEARING mentality. As far as anger and resentment to hearing world, I've not seen that, I've only seen weariness due to undereducated people and communication barriers. (continued)

the reason the deaf culture segregates themselves at time is because they have to deal with ignorant people like you who try to force CI'S so you can be just like mommy and daddy, before you go running your mouth do a little research, spend time in THEIR CULTURE, then open your mouth.you refer to the deaf as "THEM" hypocrite. i am hearing, i liked using my hands, i apologize for this comment, not all hearing are this uneducated, as you have your village idiots, we have ours- once again sorry
