Most parents see a fraction of successful children posters in an only speech training programs, without access to natural sign language. Oral Deaf Education Confidential takes you behind the scenes of the only speech training programs to see the real results. And what happens to the majority of children who failed in the only speech training programs, had to transfer to other schools, and many fell through the cracks in the educational system.
This blog will have guest bloggers and an anthology of true stories from other blogs and websites. The ultimate purpose of the Oral Deaf Education Confidential blog is to educate the parents with babies who have hearing loss or are deaf, so they could be fully informed in order to make an unbiased decision for their children.
In addition, some successful students coming from the oral deaf education background who are now deaf adults. They have been sharing their true stories: upon learning natural sign language, at the price of oralism, they realized how much they suffered the stunted emotional, social, and psychological developments. Now that they are members of deaf community, they are much happier going back and forth between deaf community and society.
