One of the most difficult things about having a young child with hearing loss is teaching them to advocate for themselves...to get the help they need, when they need it. Last week, Nate told me that his hearing aids needed new batteries when they ran out in the middle of the day. Today, I realized when I dropped him at school that I forgot to put his aids in. I asked if he would be ok without them. He politely told me that he wanted me to go home and get them. I'm so proud of my big boy!
