We have it going really good for us, with the technology that’s now available to us. Not to mention email, which I can’t live without. It replaces faxes, voice phone calls and phone message machines.

Okay…before I forget, I have been told the HLAA conference in Anaheim for February 2009 has been cancelled. Too bad, as I was planning to go. But there are always lots of other DHH events going on.
Now, somone in Michigan has contacted me regarding giving an interview about the ages-old controversy between oralism and manualism. [...]

In the midst of all the excitement over the last few days, I forgot to comment about the CODA family, who appeared on the Super Nanny television show with Jo Frost.
In case you didn’t see the show, I can give a short summary about it. It was about two deaf parents, who had several HEARING [...]

I won’t be covering this one in too much detail. Basically, possessing the the naturalistic intelligence ability means someone has the ability to understand the natural world. This person would be comfortable living and/or working out in natural areas.

Someone asked me for an explanation of the multiple [...]

Today, I’m going to talk about the newest one, called Naturalistic. I feel that for DHH people, this is an important intelligence mode that you should be looking for, in helping a DHH child.
