No Longer Deaf to Their Needs.
Flaxbeard, Richard; Toomey, Wendy
British Journal of Special Education, v14 n3 p103-05 Sep 1987
The difficulties experienced by deaf parents' hearing children (n=10) as they approached puberty were studied and compensatory education programs sought for them through residential and regular schools. The children exhibited conversational difficulties, memory problems, reasoning difficulties, and poor language comprehension. Children's communication with and attitudes toward their parents are discussed. (JDD)
