Why not let the deaf parents of hearing children to have the equal opportunity to determine and tailor its own hearing offspring's' so-called physical flaws- ability to hear and speak vocally.
Deaf parents of hearing children ought to be given the right to deafize their own hearing children by disabling their eardrums and voice boxes to be fitted in the deaf society. So the hearing children will be not the outcasts in their deaf parents' own world. Right???
Hearing parents of deaf babies and children rather see their own children to be part of the norm and conformity of their own world to be the talking parrot or trained seal to delight the dominant society at large.
That is really the medical necessity for deaf parents of hearing children to disable the eardrum and voice box for the sake of survival and success in the deaf world. Don't we??
We must demand to our government and health insurance companies that they could not discriminate against deaf clients to the right of medical necessity options to deafize the hearing children.
Many of us, deaf people realize that the hearing children are real valuable commodity for us to enslave them to serve our own needs, ex. emergency interpreting and status symbol to fit in the hearing society. Don't we agree?
Let the American society to taste its own medicine by letting deaf parents of hearing children to disable the eardrum and voice box as part of equal opportunity based on medical necessity. Right???
Deaf parents of hearing children should be not discriminated against when they opted for the request of deafizing hearing offspring in name of health issue. Why not???
Or just our own cultural and linguistic preference of deafizing hearing children as what hearing parents of deaf babies and children do the VERY SAME THING for the sake of status quo and community image?
Please think carefully what the proposal intentionally is all about : HUMAN VANITY, HUMAN CONFORMITY, HUMAN SELFISHNESS, HUMAN EGOISM, HUMAN UNHEALTHY PRIDE, HUMAN ARROGANCE, HUMAN PRUDENCE, HUMAN IRRATIONALITY, HUMAN ILLOGICALITY, HUMAN BASTARDIZATION, HUMAN MADNESS AND OTHER MORE!!
Let's MARCH together to demand for our equal right to the medical surgery of deafizing hearing children in name of health necessity. Right?? Better be! We must show the dominant society what the human fallacy for having the cochlear implant surgery on deaf babies and youngsters without their own consents!
ASLize yours,
