Educating Your Child

There are several philosophies and methodologies for educating hearing impaired children. Not any one system is the best for all children. This is a decision that you will have to make for your child and your family. You can make an informed choice when you understand the options. And remember, your decision is not written in stone. All children should be periodically evaluated for growth in language skills. Specific objectives should be met. If progress has not been met, you have every right to find out why. Take part in choosing the educational option … don’t let the ‘professionals’ make the decision for you. Knowledge can empower you!
