In Italy, every year, born about 1500/2000 children with deafness.
and 6500/7000 are about children who need school support for hearing problems.
From these data shows that children with hearing impairments, deaf people are not necessarily complete, are a really large number.
So why do not you can improve communication from an early age in the range 0-3 years is the period of greatest learning?
Joseph Lonergan, head of the right hand, has just filed a motion in which he proposes to place a professional specialized in Italian Sign Language in at least a day nursery for the District.
As you know, the sign language is a visual communication system used by the signers of the community they belong to the majority of people who are deaf or hearing too weak to be able to communicate verbally (to every nation, among other things, is its language).
"Familiarity with this new Language (LIS) - Lonergan says in the document - it would be for the little deaf and a cultural background very useful and would serve in particular to hearing people as a new symbol system of communication. " The Council noted that this experience would serve as a stimulus for intellectual development, emotional and social band ranging from 3 months to 3 years, fostering a harmonious integration of deaf and all alike have the same learning opportunities. "Not only - the parent company continues - but bilingualism would reduce the emotional and psychological impact of hearing and deaf children by promoting socialization, so as to make the Lis as their native language for the deaf and second language for deaf children. "
The Council requests that the Administration will undertake a census of resident families with deaf children under 3 years of age, to change the rules for access to the lists to help the entry of deaf children in nursery schools where the professional will be specialized.
