Follow me on:

A frustrated adult child with a hard of hearing mother who is gravitating towards the deaf community, posted on the forum seeking help. Her mother was a lipreader who tried to fit into the hearing world. Today, her mother is in a serious relationship with a deaf man who signs. Now her mother is trying to become part of the deaf community, and her daughter is having difficulty communicating with her in both sign language and writing.
