Welcome Friends,
This Blog is dedicated to the Children of China who have lost their hearing, been born Deaf, or hard of hearing (HoH).

Hearing Loss can happen in many ways... too much loudness, an accident, birth defects which affect the ears,  illness, antibiotics, or genetics.  Deafness can be sudden or progressive.   Deafness can be unilateral or bilateral.  Deafness is NOT contagious.  Deafness IS isolating.

On this blog I will feature children who are Deaf, HoH or deaf... All these children need a home with parents willing to step up and learn American Sign Language to help the children have access to the communication they need.

There are MANY, MANY kids in China who receive NO education, NO sign language, NO way to communicate except through gestures.  When children with disability age out at age 14... I fear for them.  Girls especially are at a disadvantage and are likely to end up sold into the sex trades...  Boys are likely to end up as beggars to subsist. Eking out a living of destitution...  

Spread the word... Silence Beyond Our Control can help a child find their families.  I am NOT an agency. I am simply a VOICE for the Silent ones.
