Part of this is about the “Culture of Death” but the main issue here should be pandering to the militant deafies. I’ve learned a lot about the “Deaf Culturists” since the recent contretemps at Galludet.
The deafies are feeling threatened as cochlear implants get better and better.
One would imagine the children might want to continue the final step and kill these moron parents when they were old enough and had a chance.
