My partner's daughter was not allowed to interpret in medical situations after someone noticed she lacked qualifications, and warned the hospital they could end up in litigation if a mistake is made. She had to go to sign classes and pass exams, which exposed the fact her signing was actually quite poor ! Signing to Mum is NOT The same as acting as an interpreter. She is attending classes now and says she is struggling with all the signs she didn't know, she didn't have ! She can still attend with her mum as support, but she is NOT allowed to interprret for her. In essence I agree with that, because if an error is made, then Mum will suffer for it. Sadly it seems that her daughter is finding it very hard going, and undecided whether to carry on or leave it to the pros. Two other children by a previous marraige have virtually no sign skills at all. Not all CODA's are good signers. A lot are quite poor. I agree with RLM.

I love that you said "bass" like the fish! I have been married to a Deaf man for 10 years and my hearing friends find it funny that I always move centerpieces from the middle of the table! Does that make me a "SODA" or "WODA?" Haha! I love that you said “bass” like the fish!

That bass music....DAMN IT! Two of my oldest kids used to do that while thinking I wouldn't feel or hear anything. How little they knew I could feel AND hear (hearing aids), they were in shock when I came storming upstairs to tell them to knock it off. Now my youngest son, 17 always has his friends over. His friends would turn up the music while my son kept telling them to turn it down right away before I'd show up. They didn't believe him until they turned around and were shocked to see me standing there to tell them to knock it off or get out. LOL! I rarely wear my hearing aids in the house but I happen to have them on when I come home from the errands or work. Last night when I came home from work, I heard the screaming and stomping. I caught his friends running downstairs in the dark to go out of front door. I came running after them and glared at them. They looked and yelled, "UH OHHHH, KEEEIIIITHHHH, YOUR MOM IS HOME!" My kid came around and said innocently, "Hi, Mom...what's up?" I told him to keep it down. I have no idea what they were up to outside. I guess it must be two girls who walked down the street from my house after I parked my car in back driveway. *shakes head* That's teenagers to you guys. Insane Misha :D OMFG!!!!!!
