I know It is not possible for any deaf child with cochlear implants to understand everything what is being said or listen to a music on a stage.. very funny.... ASL is the most beautiful, useful and natural language for the deafies on a stage in spite of far or nearby of an audience. for your information, I used to be in an oral and a public school with no interpreter for the first 5 years. I learned nothing. It is a alot of waste time and waste alot of money to put training on the deafies's lips and ears.. God make our hands to replace of our voice and eyes to replace of our ears to communicate (360) thank you KH HI, It is ok for ASl users to welcome those with cochlear implants..

Since it is based in NYC, ASL is novel or even non-existent. I almost immediately identified Bill Rancic as an

But, gosh, it's a very censored site!!!! Should "we" make a video to promote ASL? Sure, why not! I have seen so many children's lives improved tenfold with ASL than just total oralism. It's ok if kids speak if they are capable, but to deny them ASL is just dumb.

What Bill Rancic fails in this "In The Loop" interview is to provide a clear, precise, absolutely true-to-detail description for the language battle. It is one of many examples of language segregation promoted by hearing supremacy.

As I was venting out about the missing comments, I found out that these comments reappeared when the video was completed. So, now we know it is not the media favoring AG Bell. Nevertheless, it is crucial for Deaf advocate agencies such as DBC and NAD to contact them about providing the facts on what makes a Deaf child successful and to shun ASL from their lives is not the answer.

I find it interesting that the comments posted above and the one from Sonny James are no longer visible on the website but kept the other two from October who advocated oralism Sonny James (December 13, 2007 06:59 PM) American Sign Language is every deaf and hard of hearing persons' true and natural language. Along with ASL, they become bilingual with English and even trilingual along with a third language. ASL users welcome those with cochlear implants, they are part of us, with understanding that they should learn/use ASL along with their auditory and verbal training. I object to any ridiculous practice or teachings that ban ASL because cochlear implant is not a cure, its only an aid for them to integrate with their hearing peers. We would all be better off if we teach and promote ASL to our hearing family members, friends, and educators. Anyway, we just need to establish stronger media connections to get in and tell our side of the story. I am wondering why NAD has not been doing this or have I missed something?

The video breaks my heart because those children are missing out on invaluable learning time and socialization. ASL is our true and natural language.

Obviously, we have a long way to battle with the evil corporation, AGB. They removed the comments who disagreed with them.
