Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
Hi raging bull.
My husband is deaf, he wears 2 hearing aids which let him hear loud sounds but don't help at all with hearing what people say. He relies on lip reading and gets very frustrated when we are with people who mumble or don't face him, or on seeing the aids, talk to him as though he is simple.
As far as subtitles are concerned he finds them extremely frustrating and distracting as they rarely give an accurate reflection of what he knows is being said.
