I think you stand strong in your convictions and unless someone is actually in your shoes, they can't FULLY understand. So basically... you rock!

Being able to hear does NOT guarantee a happy or "normal" life. Perhaps the parents in this thread felt NOT wearing a hearing aide or learning sign language WAS/IS in the best interest of the child and honestly, who are we to tell them what is best for their child.

Not being able to hear or providing a child with the means to hear is NOT neglect or abuse so.....

Thank you, Blackcat!
