Do not be downcast. Deafness does not, necessarily, bring dumbness. Do not consider the deaf child as different from other children. Do not cease talking to him. Do not speak with exaggerated facial movements. Do not exempt him from the duties and tasks and obedience properly demanded of all children. Do not let him grow selfish. Do not let him grow indifferent. Do not be in haste. Do not show impatience. |
