Raising a Deaf Child - My Sisters Share What It Was Like Growing Up With a Deaf Sister
In the video, I interviewed my hearing sisters asking them a few questions on what it was like growing up with a Deaf sister- what is the hardest part of having a Deaf sister, if they felt like there was a language barrier between us, etc.
The statistics show that about 90 percent of deaf children are born to hearing parents and that only about 10 of those parents learn to sign to communicate with their deaf child and because those parents don’t learn to communicate, neither do their hearing children learn to communicate with their deaf sibling(s).
I’m blessed and thankful that both my parents and my sisters did learn to sign and I want that for all deaf children- to have a good relationship with their parents and their siblings. It’s my hope that through sharing our story that we will reach hearing parents and encourage them to learn sign language to communicate with their deaf child and to teach their hearing siblings sign language too- so that their deaf child feels like they are included and a part of the family.
Also- please note that this is not a sign language lesson- I rarely correct my family growing up so do not attempt to learn signs from this video. :)

Also, I have a mini fingerspelling course, Fingerspelling 101- it is a self paced course focusing only on the alphabet letters practicing both fingerspelling and fingerspelling receptivity at a variety speeds. This course is perfect not only for those who have not learned the alphabet but also for those who have recently learned the alphabet or for those who struggle with reading fingerspelling at a slow speed. The course is only $15 and there’s a 30 day moneyback guarantee. Fingerspelling is an important part of learning to sign.
