Michelle

In michelles blog of ASL section, she talks aobut the importance of people paying attention to this problem of beign deaf. Mainstreaming and special education is definitley a subject that is made attention young deaf children. They would like to be treated the same as the other children but the issue of special treatment because they cant hear is the an obstacle as they grow up.

Rhianon

She stated a fact of doctors for around 100 years did not want to teach deaf people aobut ASL because they thought they would not understand proper english when they grow up. i think that doctors have had this belief of people learning the necessary things when they go to school. The american sing language is just as effective for communication with other people. I was very surprised to know that alot of medical professionals believed another way of learning only one way of coummunication.

Thida

I read thida's blog from ASL section, it was very interesting that people in deaf community teach deaf children to read lips and try to speak as they are young. If they use these techinques then they will be able to communicate with hearing people easier without had gestures. They will still understand another indivdual without little or no problems getting the message across.
