Imagine living in a world where you can't hear the sounds around you, and then being blamed for not hearing a baby's cries. This is the story of a 30-year-old deaf woman who lives on a ranch with her service dog, horses, and barn cats. When her brother and sister-in-law came to stay with her to escape the city's Covid spikes, things took a turn for the worse. 😓

Misunderstanding or Negligence? 🤔

This heart-wrenching story of a deaf woman being accused of negligence by her family has left us questioning who's really at fault. The woman, who can't hear without her hearing aid, didn't know her niece was left alone in the house for hours. Now, even her own parents are calling her negligent. But is it fair to blame her for not hearing the baby's cries? Or should her sister-in-law have made sure she understood the request before leaving? Let's see what the internet thinks of this situation... 💭
