Thank you!!!! I am glad to know that I do NOT have to be neuteral anymore! I respect any children like you used to be and now Emma's wish not wanting to wear CI for tooooo many hours everyday!!! Breaks my heart too!!!

@PopeMistress ...one hour in a lifetime is one too many! Thanks for your comments.

I agree. They have no right to force on children. As I've seen in some videos, Emma's mother often said to Emma "You want cake?" after she put CI on. She's using Pavlov reinforcement like we train dogs. If dogs do tricks, then we feed them. That help dogs, but it didn't help Emma. It shows that CI is really painful.

@Salticid68 'you want some sweet rolls and hot cholocate? Put it on for me...'

Your message continues to be powerful. You need to be strong for others like you. For Emma and her family. I truly hope you will help lead the march for Deaf Civil Rights for identity and language rights. I'll join you!

@ASLElla your comments here is inspiring...yes join in hands!

i SUPPORT ANTI-CI SINCE I watched other video about the other children scream for help that hearing people ignored the children's rights to say no CI!! Keep powerful words to spread all over the world !

[deafmilitants]

@ASLCherish done that thanks!

@allisonpeace even though many of us cant be there physically our thoughts and prayers are with Emma.

Your message is POWERFUL! Since the national media tends to focus on its own one positive side about the successful CI, should we establish an organization to recruit CI victims like you for an interview. To have a statistic report for the media to listen our side is very important to act ! Keep yourself strong and continue to share your horrible experience with anyone!
