So many excuses/reasons why hearing parents don’t sign that we are losing count.
On a serious note, when Deaf children of any age ask their parents to learn to sign, they are doing so because they want the connection and sense of belonging that a shared language provides.
If you are a hearing parent of a Deaf child, learning sign language is the greatest gift you can give your child and yourself. You don’t need to achieve 5-star fluency. Bring the right attitude, put your best effort into learning, and the payoff will be so worth it. Trust us.
