DVD version also available. Two brothers, one deaf and one hearing, grapple with a
decision concerning their deaf children, and the debate that rages through the
extended family turns less on technology and medical concerns than social
politics and culture. The deaf parents of a school-age girl fear what the
implant would do to her unique identity, while the hearing parents of a
toddler see no question at all. Aronson gives all sides their say, but
ultimately the increasingly angry arguments reveal prejudices and fears from
both sides and split the once-harmonious family, much like they have split
hearing and deaf communities across the country. Clicking on the underlined
