Deaf culture
"I'd love to work for deaf people again."
"Deaf children live in two worlds, in a way."
When do children get involved with the deaf community?
"With all of that counseling we did miss insights into the whole world behind deafness and sign language."
"It's really easy if everyone is deaf at a party, we can all just sign."
"It's amazing that we can be in two worlds, the deaf world and the hearing world."
"We participate in activities with WeZoDo and the Zo Hoort Het foundation."
Is deaf culture an international phenomenon, or is there also a Dutch deaf culture?
Can parents also become a part of the deaf community?
"I wasn't much of a dancer, but we could sign together at the disco."
What exactly do deaf people mean when they talk about 'deaf culture'?
"We used to play throughout the country with deaf sports."
"The advantage of deafness is easy international communication, I want them to know that."
How difficult is it for parents to get involved in the deaf community?
"For the youngest I have a baby monitor with a buzzer function and a light."
