Does my child have hearing problems?
As parents, it is only natural that you pay close attention to you child’s behaviour. Perhaps you have noticed that your child does not respond to sounds like you would expect them too. They might not react to their name or a loud unexpected noise like a door slamming shut or a vase breaking into pieces on the floor. They might not be able to follow instructions. They might not babble to themselves or mimic your talking. All of these things could indicate a hearing impairment. On Hear2Live, you can see examples of situations that parents of a child with hearing loss typically encounter. Do they seem familiar to you?
