A simple flow chart 🙌🏼

We can’t just put things on a line and call them a spectrum 🥴

This is exactly what baby sign sounds like to me.

501st time: Reduced hearing levels do not cause language deficits.

Sound does not equal language.

Me with my list of reasons why Deaf kids need ASL.

Why are we so obsessed with one while completely ignoring the other two?

Just a few differences between spoken and signed lang— oh wait! They’re exactly the same because they’re all languages.

We cannot predict whether a Deaf child will succeed with spoken language given hearing devices. We can only create a condition of accessible language under which they can flourish.

Don’t be an anti-sign language speech therapist 👊🏼

I tried my best to edit this horrid graphic.

I have often heard that parents don't always have access to ASL classes in their community. That's why I want to give TWO families five free online ASL sessions with a Deaf ambassador through @SignOnConnect Apply here: bit.ly/fivefreesessions Two families will be chosen on 12/21.
