We want to know what you think it would be like to be deaf. If you are deaf, tell us what it is like. Tell us how you think life would be different or the same if you were deaf. Click here to Add to this survey!
I think if you were deaf you would just want to be accepted and treated like everyone else. It would be hard to talk to your friends; they would have to know some sign language. I think instead of hearing the words in your head you would see the signs in your head. To be deaf and/or blind would be hard!

I'm not deaf but if i wear I'd feel emptyin the inside. But that is why I admire all kinds of people that cant hear. talk, walk, even move. They go through alot but they all have there own ways to have fun to be able to communicate with others. Even though there are people in the world that make fun of these people.

Im not deaf, but i know is very hard to be it. Also I know how important it is for people to be able to speak sign language . For example if a deaf kid gets lost he/she would be scared thinking how is he going to get help. know if i would know sign language i could held that kid out.

It would be boring to me, but maybe to others it maybe fun. To my friend Zachary, I think it would be sad. Because you can not talk, well, you can talk a little at least
But it would be hard to talk if you could not hear. If I had a friend that knew sign language, I would try to learn sign language, but I do not.
have a friend that knows sign language. But I am taking sign language class with Zachary anyway, because I want to learn sign language.
I also have other friends taking this class also.

I don't think that I can imagine what it would be like to be deaf. When I am thinking I hear the words in my head. I wonder what deaf people "hear" when they think.
