Development may be affected in two specific ways: (a) in communication, which in turn influences many other areas of development; and (b) in experiential learning. Parents who are deaf or hard of hearing themselves often can communicate with their children sooner and with greater facility than hearing parents, so those children develop ASL skills at a similar rate as the spoken English skills of same-age hearing peers. However, parents who are hearing may have difficulty communicating, and their children may be more likely to experience problems developing emotional bonds (resulting from communication) and acquiring language.
