Now it's time for you to take ASL Linguistics in order to appreciate and respect your primary language - AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE!!! And also, I believe that it is time for you to show respect for ASL professors. Thank you!

  • u better deleted this video cuz all deaf people already known about their life.

  • In addition, you could not tell me what to do because it is simply true. Are you trying to hide something?

  • And that I know about English and ASL got seprated rules. Thanks.

  • @mommy2be143 - are you sure that you know ASL has its own rules? Since you mentioned that you do sign ASL and English, that puzzled me most because it seems that you probably did not realize that you need to take ASL classes. How about that? Go for it!

  • Deaf people with good ASL doesnt need to go to ASL classes.. How about yourself? You need to be specific to whom. Because some people dont like when you are pointing at wrong people. Be careful on what you say to others.

    You couldnt challenge all of us. It's like you make us.

    Deaf people can sign ENGLISH when they want. I got hearing family, I sign ENGLISH! A few of ASL.

    Most deaf people all over the world loves ASL, you gotta start and say for whom.

    We insulted you? (Laughing)

  • @mommy2be143 I disagreed with you about Deaf people with good ASL did not need to go to ASL classes. ALL hearing americans do take English classes, even though some of them are good, fair or bad. As long as they are aware of English rules. That goes same for Deaf people to be aware of ASL rules.

  • Thank you. :)  You said it all.

  • You did a good job to NAIL a few Deaf people's forehead! Exactly!!! Hearing kids learn their first language in English for their lifetime! I think that Deaf people need to learn their first language in ASL for their lifetime! I think that some of them need to require the upgrading of education for themselves. Some of them have none REPSECT their own Deaf culture and their own ASL linguistic. Sad!!!

  • Bravo! You have a lot of good points that you raised. I have also talked about the absence of teachers in sign language contained in the lesson at school for the deaf, they do not correct the students' sign language when needed.

  • That's a good video you got... I totally agree with you even I did deny taking ASL classes at Gally and now I regret it. After I comprehend all US laws of Deaf rights/Audism then I'll go local classes to take it.

  • Mommytobe, ideafnews suck cause you dont support ASL... thank you...

  • totally agree it should begin at K grade to 12.. and beyond.. imagine hearing hate taking english classes. most do.. what about deaf.. when they take ASL linguistic classes etc.. start moaning and rolling eyes and wish not to go to class when its a pain in the ass.. I am glad I had no complicated lingusitc classes.. whew.. I got away from it..

  • We are friendly, but you are not.. why?? whats wrong with you mommy2be143.. moody while pregnant?? ASL rocks.. if you dont want to improve your ASL.. be my guest.. Do I care.. no.. why do you worry.. I didnt do anything.. damn you..

  • I second all your points!

  • Let you know that I sent video comment under your vlog.
