Her parents not only refuse to learn ASL, when they watch movies with her they won't turn on the captioning because it's "annoying!" Lady, your parents are self-centered abusive sheetheads, cut them out of your life.

Ableism in a very callous and abusive form. I can only wonder what they were like as parents when she was younger, even before her hearing loss.

I'm guessing that people who refuse to turn on captions if a deaf person is watching the movie are terrible human beings and parents in every way.
