Our success with our deaf son from Sue Pietersen on Vimeo.



"My Son was Born Profoundly Deaf...His Speech is so Good Now, Some People Don't Even Know He's Deaf!"

There you go it can be done.

  1. Is this for NON-signing deaf readers?

  2. The title got my attention and I clicked on the title, then I saw the vlog. How can I understand what you are saying? There is no subtitle or captions. But I would like to say something. Your son may speak so well that some people thinks he is a hearing. But your son go sleep deaf and wakes up deaf. He is still a deaf person inside, that is who he is.

  3. Well its a parent of a deaf child, we have to take in everyone's viewpoint. Obviously access FOR The deaf wasn't her prime motive. Perhaps if she sees it highlighted she may think more positively next time ?

  5. Sue, Thank you for your video....we recently just found out that my nephew is deaf...4 months old. It gives me hope for him. Teddy is so loved and has a wonderful family and an Auntie who is crazy about him. He is the most beautiful thing I have ever laid my eyes on. I will pass this along to my sister it will give her hope for Teddy's future. Thanks Sue and best to you and your son.
