I am married to a hearing impaired person (a severely botched mastoid surgery as a child). It never stopped him doing an international high tech job, and I NEVER hear him complain about being unable to hear unless we are in a very noisy bar or restaurant, he has taught himself to lipread. My Grandfather was completely deaf, you only knew it when he turned off his hearing aid when my Grandmother was nagging him! My brother was hearing impaired and no one every knew it.
The very last thing any of these people would have thought about is suing because they had the misfortune to have a disability. It was just accepted as a fact of life and none of them expected the Government to take care of them.
Am I now reading that their attorneys are going after the school? I do hope I misunderstood that.
