Cued Speech: A Mother's Perspective
My son, Max, is going to be 13 in April. When he was 2 ½ I identified him as having auditory neuropathy through a web search. The first thing I did in my journey toward figuring out how to help myself, my son and my family to adjust our life to this new information was learn Cued Speech. I’ve been cueing for ten years. As a result of choosing to use Cued Speech, I have found myself navigating the world of deafness and the education system with an added variable. The world of deafness is small, but the world of cued speech is even smaller. Few people choose to use Cued Speech and many people have never even heard of it or seen it used, but I think everyone should at least know about it. I’d like to share my experience learning and using this system as one of the ways I communicate with Max and how it helps support his academic and social growth. I’d like to offer myself as a resource for people who are interested in learning about Cued Speech from someone who uses it firsthand.
