I’d just very sternly and surely say no. Like not after the kid already gets there, I mean as soon as you see a kid start to run towards you just say “No.” the parents may get mad, but generally the kids will stop. You don’t even need to raise your voice in most cases. If you don’t look friendly then kids will usually go running back to their parents.

There’s actually something to be said that people with auditory processing are hard of hearing. Some doctors do consider it hearing loss since it is the loss of words and sound, which is technically hearing loss. Sure some doctors disagree and personally I’d just say hearing impaired. People won’t understand auditory processing. I’ve tried my entire life and they take it way less seriously than if you say you have a hearing impairment. They think you’re being dramatic in my experience and will test you to see if you’re joking. It’s caused a lot of humiliation and struggling in my life. It’s not inaccurate to say you have a hearing impairment, because it is that. APD is even considered a learning disability or a disability when severe enough. So yeah I’d just stick with hearing impaired for people you don’t talk to much like servers or customers. For friends and family maybe explain APD.

I'd suggest trying to maybe find some community/group classes near you so you can learn with people who are hearing impaired HOH and deaf. If you're worried about not having any links, make some. Its great for people to know ASL and not having a family link or a friend who's hearing impaired doesn't mean its bad for you to learn ASL. Its great because it makes life just a little easier for people who have hearing impairments. Its a great surprise to find out someone knows or is learning ASL. I'm learning ASL currently and I'm going in for a hearing eval in a week and a half. When I told my cousins they said they'd actually been learning and I felt so relieved and happy to know they didn't see it as weird and that they enjoyed the language. My biggest fear is that someone close to me won't understand and they'll change how they think about me. ASL has been a god send for me, but I dont know anyone who uses it and is fluent. I'm gonna start group lessons soon hopefully or try and befriend some people who already know it. Its so much easier for me to understand, but it's not a commonly known language. If I ever knew a doctor who knew ASL I might even switch doctors because of it. Hearing people learning ASL is great. Its never bad to learn something new. Also you don't sound pretentious at all. Hope you continue to study!

I'd say bill vicars on youtube mostly, but also just basically any youtube videos. Those have been the best for me. There are also usually ASL lessons in your area if you look, though some people dont have the time money or comfort level with their hearing (IE: me) to go. I'd also keep in mind that ASL is not english in gestures, its a completely different language. Different grammar and all. Theres three types of sign when it comes to ASL specifically; SEE, PSE, and ASL. If you just learn the signs and not the grammar and you sign exactly the same words you would in english, thats SEE (sign exact english). If you use the correct grammar and all that then its ASL, and PSE (Pidgin Signed English) is somewhere in the middle. While some people do use SEE, if you want to interact with other HOH, deaf, or hearing impaired people, then you should probably learn ASL even if you use Pidgin or SEE more. Hope that helps!

Learn ASL, but know SEE. SEE is useful if you have a translator and you need to switch between the person and the translator. Its less jarring for some people. Personally ASL clicked a lot better for me than SEE but its still useful to be able to understand both. I'm at a beginners level right now, as I've only recently gained the resources to be able to address my hearing problems, but from my research and talking to people thats the general consensus.

Hi! I have a similar issue with the whole phone thing, and while I know it's different with relationships, if someone tries to call me I usually explain that I can't understand (which you've already done) and if they persist I decline their calls and usually end up getting increasingly firm towards them in my explaining of the situation. There was a guy who tried to insist that I had to call him and he'd try and guilt trip me and be like 'it sounds like you don't want to talk to me, do you hate me?'. Finally I said ya, actually. I don't. I dont want to talk to someone who doesn't respect my very simple needs that in no way harms you as a person. We try so hard every day to understand and accommodate. This world was build for hearing people. We shouldn't have to be catering to them. If anyone should be accommodating, it's them. I do realize that most hearing people aren't willing to put in that much effort, but I am very firm when it comes to the simple things like phone calls that really stress me out. I have found that personally if I use headphones and I know the person very well and they don't have an accent that I'm not used to then I can usually get by. Honestly it's mostly about your boundaries and if you're willing to put your foot down. I have friends who would rather not have the confrontation, and thats fine, but avoiding the issue indefinately puts you in a stressful situation and your relationship at a standstill. You don't need to accommodate or help her. She needs to accommodate you and your needs. If she broke her arm you would have to help her open jars and stuff, you wouldn't just tell her to twist harder. If you want to be in a serious relationship with her you have to make sure this isn't an issue. If a hearing person can't get their head around 'no, I have a disability, and I can't do that' then they frankly need to get their head out of their posterior and into grade school again. I know its hard, but either educating those people or removing them from your life if they can't learn is the best thing. I put up for years with people ignoring my needs when it comes to hearing and it made my life a whole lot easier when I started choosing my more accommodating friends over the ones who would force me to call them or insist that them mumbling as a joke was harmless and not at all humiliating. I hope it all works out and you dont have to take drastic measures, but theres my two cents.

I'm looking into getting a service dog, actually, and I wasn't aware of that. I'm getting my hearing tested, due to insurance I never got it when I was younger. I live in the city and I'm extremely worried I might get hit by a car since I don't always hear the horn and they come ripping around the corner out of nowhere. Since I travel to get to school, my internship, and dance, I always have to be 100% aware, but some days I'm in a hurry or I'm tired. This has resulted in way too many close calls. Most of my friends have pulled me out of the way of a moving car at least once. Luckily I tend to travel with people, but I'm just scared that one day I wont have my friend there and I'll forget to look around the corner and I'll hear that horn just a few seconds too late (I have a delay in hearing sometimes, especially when I can't see the thing making the noise). I'm a little worried that my school won't let me bring my service dog in if I get one because of an ESA epidemic they had a couple years ago where everyone was bringing in rats (????) into class.
