Ep 20: 3 assumptions about bilingual 'success' I made when I had my Deaf son

In this episode, I’m diving into the 3 biggest assumptions I made about what bilingual success should look like when I first had my Deaf son. Spoiler: I thought I had it all figured out as a Teacher of the Deaf… but parenting cracked that wide open. I share how my definition of bilingualism has completely evolved, and why I now believe it’s not just possible - but accessible - for every family raising a deaf or hard of hearing child. This one’s for anyone who’s ever questioned if they’re “doing it right!"

PS I also mention my upcoming bilingual masterclass which is going to be such a powerful first step for families wanting to build a bilingual approach with their kids (Oh and PS it's actually landing early next week, not this week!)
