Will My Child Behave and Develop Differently Than A Child With Normal Hearing?

Each child is an individual with a unique personality. Thus, the developmental process may vary for a specific child. Just as two hearing babies in the same family may be totally different, a deaf or hard of hearing baby and a hearing baby in the same family may display differences that relate more to personality and overall development than to deafness.

If you have concerns about other areas of your child’s overall development, such as motor skills, you may want to speak with someone in your community who is knowledgeable about child development.
