Parental and communicational challenges of deaf mothers and their hearing children

Summary/Abstract: In previous publications referring to a relation between a deaf mother and a hearing child, researchers focused on home, social and educational issues or a psychosocial behaviour associated with a adult hearing child of deaf parents (e.g. Bartnikowska 2010; Plutecka 2009; Jagoszewska 2015; Kamińska 2007). In the undertaken research, those carrying it out decided to change the approach and look at the situation of Deaf mothers who face challenges raising a hearing child. The research focused on mentioned issues as looked at from the point of view of Deaf mothers, specifically. The pilot research of 2018 used the biographical method, which implied the application of qualitative research techniques, i.e. narrative and Indyvidual-in-Depth Interview (IDI).The main purpose of this research was a need to explore the unknown territory as well as aneffort to answer questions regarding the issues (ifany) the Deaf mothers of heating children encounter as well as to see what the Communications between them looks like. Results of this research revealed a number of communicational issues in heating child’s environment but also obstacles, barriers and challenges the Deaf mothers come cross raising their hearing children.
