“Mom! Mom! Mom!” Sound familiar? In our house, communication looks a little different—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Here’s how my kids talk to me as their Deaf/Hard of Hearing mom: 👉 Tap me to get my attention. 👉 Face me to give visual cues. 👉 Have me get at their level. 👉 Use ASL (we’re learning together!). 👉 Wave to get my attention. 👉 Slow down when speaking. These little adjustments go a long way in creating meaningful connections—and they’ve taught my kids to be mindful, patient, and empathetic communicators. It’s not always perfect, but we’re learning and growing together every day. 💡 How do your kids or loved ones adapt to connect with you? Share your experiences in the comments—I’d love to hear! #MamaHuHears #DeafAwareness #InclusiveParenting #DeafMomLife #HardOfHearing #ASL #CommunicationMatters
