[quote=Anonymous]There's a book by Katherine Bouton called "Shouting won't help" that you might want to look at. Get it from the library if you can, because the most useful part, tips on how to talk to people who are hard of hearing, is only a page or two, but it is very good. The only thing I'd add is that it helps if you slow down. I am hard of hearing, and if people are speaking quickly I can't understand what they're saying, even with my excellent hearing aids. Bouton has another book out called "Smart hearing" but I haven't seen it. [/quote]
