After
reviewing the two Heather Artinian videos of the journey a family takes through
the process of disability culture and then watching the same child as adult,
discuss your thoughts on how the family handled the situation, the ideas that
come to mind with your own thoughts and how would you react as a parent,
teacher, administrator or other family if faced with this
situation in any capacity. There are no right answers to this very
delicate situation but our dialogue and discussion will help us each work
through our own thoughts so that we come to a shared understanding-which may
not be easy. This is the link video

The experiences, language, customs, and social
conventions of people who are deaf or hard of hearing are all included in the
dynamic and complex community known as deaf culture. Sign language, a
visual-gestural language that enables deaf people to properly communicate and
express themselves, is at the core of deaf culture. Although deaf language is
not universal, every country has its own sign language. culture of the hearing majority is different from
those of the deaf community (Humphries et al.,
2019). For instance, eye contact is essential for visual
communication in sign language exchanges. In addition, deaf people may use
various social conventions and communication etiquette, such as tapping on
someone's shoulder or waving their hands to draw their attention rather than
yelling their name.
