When discussing the decision-making process of Deaf children's parents (ASL or Oralism, and so forth), the word "CHOICES" is often tossed around. Nowadays, this particular word has spilled over to the Deaf community- we are told that we must respect "choices", not principles. Should we sit down and accept our current situation? What would you do if you were told to respect "choices" rather than principles?
He is the best with Vlog. I have ALWAYS enjoyed his videos, always good topic to talk about.

I can't believe you said "Fine. It's their choice." If you see any parent abusing their kid, nobody will say "Fine. It's their choice." Come on, you know better than that. We can't take away mobility, world, communication, etc from child. We need to have a law requiring students learning about us and ASL at school, so that, in the future, parents of deaf children will know what's best for them. We don't have to be "slave" lecturing new people alllll the time.
