What things would be difficult or impossible if you were born deaf? One teacher of the deaf said that being deaf is analogous to being in a soundproof booth while a person outside is trying to teach you Japanese. Actually, she said, you (as a hearing person) have the easier job because you know what you are expected to do, and you can hear yourself speaking. The deaf child does not and cannot.
