It was okay, but then I thought about it...

I watched this yesterday for the first time. I did like it while I watched it, although many questions did arise during my viewing. Now, a day after, I'm re-thinking my initial assessment...and as many viewers have stated in their reviews, too many things just didn't make sense.
One thing that I haven't seen anyone else mention...while viewing, I never understood that the girl was hearing impaired. No one can talk, so I never considered that option...even after Dad gave her a hearing device. Maybe I'm the minority, but I didn't get that until I read some reviews today. But...now that I know that...why would she need a hearing aid if your world as you know it is to remain silent? No one is talking to her, so why does she need the device? Just to hear the creatures when they are close? Wouldn't that increase the chances of a child like over reaction by screaming or breathing heavily? but yet...that is the very device that saves her life in the end, so I guess that is yet another plot hole that simply must be overlooked in the name of story development and conclusion.
If their "safe room" under the mattress was safe enough for them to whisper to each other, why didn't they live down there so the family could communicate? Also, the waterfall is another place where you could freely talk to each other, yet over a year has passed and this is the first time the father has taken his son to the falls?
I didn't get the tension between the father and daughter. It seemed very contrived and unbelievable.
Given the situation the world was in, why in hell did the parents let their kids roam around alone at all hours of the day and night?
Ugh...too many questions...
