I have been sick the entire holiday, I couldn't eat drink and all I did was sleep. I felt disappointed in myself though I was supposed to stay put. So I decided to do something with my time that wouldn't require much effort from me, and that was how I started learning ASL.
I looked over the internet for free courses and videos and I started copying and I have to say I'm doing a pretty good job ^_^! I fell in love with the language that I started using it at home and now even my cousin joined me. Today I met a woman that has a deaf person in her family. I asked her about how they communicate and which school she attends and she told me that her parents never really put her in a school for deaf people so basically the child had to create signs to communicate with her family. I felt bad because it must have been difficult for her. People need to be aware how a deaf child feels as he can't watch TV meet new people and even have a proper conversation. Unaware people need to know that there are schools for deaf people in our country - Morocco - so they should put their children in schools and get them proper education just like the rest of us. I mean we are in a century where acceptance is a must, and the only way to get deaf people integrated into society is by educating their parents and letting them know about this matter.
