Finding out that the newborn baby has hearing problems can be very disconcerting for the parents. With the intention of answering all the questions that are raised to parents at this stage and until they are adults has been born My deaf son, a new portal for parents of deaf children.
It is an idea promoted by mothers and fathers of deaf children with the intention of guiding other parents in the same situation. It aims to provide them with tools that support them to face everyday situations with deaf children, as well as with regard to education, the relationship with others and their future.
They deal with topics such as how to communicate with a deaf child, sign language, how to manage the relationship with other family members (siblings, uncles, grandparents, etc.) and how to help in language development. But, without a doubt, the most interesting section of the portal is "Feelings". In it, the swirl of feelings that come before the news of knowing that your son is deaf: fear, anxiety, fear, guilt ...
It also includes practical information on where to go, financial aid, specialized associations, technical information on implants and hearing aids, and also a collection of DVDs My deaf son, in Spanish and in sign language, with testimonials from families and professional advice.
