Hi, I'm a struggling mom from Pakistan, of an amazing 3yrs old boy with 60db high frequency Sensorineural hearing loss. It's diagnosed last year in November and since Dec 2022, he is on hearing aids. Its an 8channel device.
Since a month, he is so much putting off his device that I got worried and was looking for such a video/article on Internet and thanks a million for putting this up. Can't tell you how your video gives me direction and strength that I should not let him be without hearing aids gently, as I was getting angry or anxious about it. Moreover, as he is taking directions, and imitating pretty good without device, gives us feeling that his hearing might have been improved (which I know is not possible in SHL)... I'm feeling Guilty now that since a month he is mostly without the device and just puts on these for 2, 3 hours a day during his school hours. Now i will Try to use your tips and will make sure he keeps them on the whole day. Thanks loads

My 4 year old refuses to wear them . He gets angry , there is no distracting him . He hates them so much .
