Parent and signing styles
Cuedboy's Xanga I met Bradley?s mother few days ago and I had a brief discussion with Bradley about whose mother is better signer. He simply said, it doesn?t matter whose mother is better signer at least they are able to communicate with the deaf children. It was an interesting response to my question.

My thought and experience about being deaf of hearing...
Cuedboy's Xanga Over the weekend, I watched the movie, ?Babel? it got me thinking about that deaf Japanese young woman and her struggle with her father.

My responses to Ella Lentz and Amy Enfron's vlog also my...

Well, it has been on my mind for past few days but it has became more bothersome as I push them aside. I just had to express my opinions/feelings about some vlogs that I have viewed on Deafread.com which I check religiously daily. It's very [...]
