Lesson 11 Video:

-The grandmother is trying to show her father a different perspective.
-They decided against the cochlear implant.
-The parents are being close minded.
-Surgery to have it implanted.
-Deaf culture may be affected my cochlear implants.

New:Cochlear implant, progress, selfish, inferior, forces.
Regonized: deaf, nice, hearing, meet, think, feel.

The movie is about a family trying to decide whether or not to get a cochlear implant. It shows the perspective of deaf people. It also shows the perspective of hearing people. It shows the struggles of the family in making the decision.

I think that they should do the cochlear implant on their child. The girl asked about it, she wanted it. The family is deaf and they don't know what they are missing. The girl shopuld be exposed to everything the world can offer, and she can be. But the parents because they are deaf they don't think its a good idea. They think she can be successful and she absolutly can even without it, but she will not have the sdame oppertunities as hearing, she will have more challenges and limits.
