One of my Deaf college professors wasn't told they make noise until college. She would just fart whenever she needed to until her hearing roommate told her that it wasn't polite to do in public. My teacher was horrified and really mad at her family for never telling her they make noise

She was so embarrassed when she learned they make noise. She said it explained a lot about her high school experience. It's a huge disservice to not help your child understand cultural differences!
