My wife is an SLP (speech language pathologist) who works with children. One of the children she has worked with for years has Coclear implants. This year he has had to move from their K1-5 to a new school. Their has been a huge amount of resistance in the district from people involved with the deaf only school to him going anywhere except the deaf school. It seems that many people who are deaf really feel offended by people who get implants. How have other deaf people reacted to your decision to get implants?
