As a pediatric audiologist who has grown up hard of hearing myself - I know this to be true 🤟🏽 

Function + Fun = CONFIDENCE🙌🏽

Let them share their feelings and thoughts about communication, friends, providers, colors, when they do or do not do things - then make a game plan together. Of course keep some boundaries and guidelines but children are told no/what not to do CONSTANTLY! 

Comment below how can we create more yeses for them and give them more ownership!! 🙌🏽

VD: Michelle and Asian woman putting on a brightly covered cover on her cochlear implant processor and putting the device on her ear with a smile. Text reads “Make things fun! Children are more likely to feel pride and take ownership when they feel involved and have choices in their deaf/hard of hearing journey.”
