Families tell

"It's a shame deaf and hearing impaired people haven't always gone to school together."

"I want to be a veterinarian when I grow up."

"Ideally, there would be a combination of regular and special education."

"It definitely isn't a breeze at the regular school, it requires a lot of attention."

"It would be great, of course, if they could go to a regular school in the neighborhood. But they miss so much then."

Adults tell

"My parents wanted me to join them for the PTA meeting, other parents didn't do that."
