For Deaf Kids: Know your Language Rights!

This true story resonates with many in the Deaf community, who have faced communication barriers at home. Studies reveal that 95% of Deaf babies are born to hearing parents, while only 5% have Deaf parents, ensuring language access from birth. The period between birth and four years old is crucial for language exposure, and Deaf children deserve both language access and a close family bond. According to Gallaudet University's 2010 survey, this disparity persists. My book aims to comfort those who have endured similar, sometimes horrific childhood experiences. No one should suffer as I did. If you know someone facing this situation, educate the parents, provide Deaf community resources (like Hearing and Deaf Services), and involve the state if necessary to protect our children. This book seeks to bridge the gap between the hearing and Deaf/Deaf-Blind communities.
