Deaf people cope with interaction in the hearing community in different ways. First, a hearing loss cuts people off from the world, so they use hearing aids (Vroman 35). A hearing aid helps the Deaf fit in the hearing world. Second, many people do not understand how serious a hearing loss is. Some deaf become angry at first. Then, later they accept being Deaf (Scanlon 33).
Third, the Deaf have problems making changes from school to work and to community living, so they use hearing aids and signs (Dunlap & Sands 384). Hearing aids help the Deaf. Therefore, Deaf people cope with interaction in the community by using hearing aids, accepting Deafness, and using signs.
