up not continuing due to quote lack of interest she and her husband have not taken any lessons nor have their three children walter tried introducing their daughter to baby sign when she and cora were both very young but my brother-in-law asked him to stop as he didn't want to quote confuse her confuse her of what idiot people teach their baby sign language all the time babies literally will babble in sign language sign language is like isn't that a thing sorry i'll let you finish no it's it is literally the time to teach your kids multiple languages they're little sponges yeah cora and her cousins play as best they can with the lyric with the language barrier but it's extremely frustrating for her to feel like she isn't being understood when my brother's children who visit only a few times a year visit they interpret for her or walter and i have to constantly be looking over their shoulders to help resolve their miscommunications which is too helicopter parent for me when we learned cora was deaf emily pestered me about getting her an implant and continues to send me shamey facebook posts about the benefits of the implant and those videos of babies hearing for the first time she constantly says it's quote better than having to learn two languages she's very pushy about it to the point she and walter got into a heated argument over it since then she has not pestered him about it only me my last straw was this past weekend emily was with all her kids teaching them a game i noticed that cora wasn't joining so i brought her over and emily outright told me that cora couldn't play because it's a game quote for people who can speak i was fuming and pulled her aside i told her that my daughter can communicate just not how emily wants and said that i won't have my daughter excluded for something so petty i told emily that we will be cutting contact unless she starts putting an effort learning asl teaching her kids including cora and not being so disrespectful we got in a spat about it so my family left emily has not had contact since my parents think i'm being unfair to emily but agree she should make more of an effort and my brother has completely agreed with me walter feels like i've been extreme but i'm honestly frustrated that i haven't been this extreme sooner i do worry that i'm being clouded by mama bear rage and this is actually super irrational so i think i might be the PROFANITY_TOKEN so who's the PROFANITY_TOKEN no emily is the PROFANITY_TOKEN sorry period PROFANITY_TOKEN emily period like i i don't have mama bear cloud judgment because i'm not a mom and i also don't have bias towards the hearing well i guess i am a part of the hearing world but like the deaf community like i personally am not deaf i don't have a deaf family member but i'm enraged by this i think it's absolutely inappropriate and i think it's disgusting that first of all sign language is beautiful i think it's very beneficial to have your babies learn sign language not even for the purpose of communicating with their family their cousins but it's actually i don't
