it is extremely common to interact with the elderly
people who usually lose their hearing
while talking with family about a relative passing they spoke of having a really hard time communicating with her since she didnt like
reading writing and was so hard of hearing with hearing aids that you had to shout

i think the quality of life of my grandparents would be increased greatly if we both understood ASL
asl

i benefitted greatly from learning spanish from a young age through school
id love to see something similar but for ASL
OH not to mention that babies can communicate even younger with asl since they dont need their auditory abilities in order to communicate
grandparents
school in the USA
languages
in the US there are more people who are disabled by their hearing loss than there are natural redheads
