You may not see this, but watch "Sound and Fury" on Netflix. It's all about two groups of people with deaf children. The show really highlights why the deaf world doesn't enjoy when hearing people pressure them to change.

I feel like this movie would give you a whole new insight into what that student was thinking.

The follow up is really interesting like you said. I watched it for my ASL class.

Go pick up the book "the power of habit: why we do what we do in life and business." It talks specifically about replacing habits and how this technique has been used to accomplish some great outcomes.
