We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Subject:  about hearing kids of deaf adults

hi all,

i'm Kaile, a English language research student at National University
of Singapore and my thesis topic is on the ''Language learning
situation of Chinese hearing children with hearing-impaired adults''.

So far, i have only managed to locate one article ''hearing children
of deaf parents'' (by N. Schiff-Myers) in Language Development in
exceptional circumstances. I am having great difficulty with situating
my research study within the field of sign language studies because my
university doesn't subscribe to journals like American Annals of the
Deaf, Volta Review etc.

Hence, i was wondering if anyone can point me to useful journal
articles or books and if possible, send me the articles via my email
address hkaile at hotmail.com.

thanks very much for your time
