This is great of Disney to ensure that ALL children can enjoy the fun. However, I would like to see the day when many more people can communicate in British Sign Language or American Sign Language, so that ALL deaf people can be included. Maybe one day it will be included on the school syllabus and it won't need to make headline news just because a few people can communicate with a deaf child.

It all starts at school. My children (who are not hearing impaired) went to an infant school which also specialised in the support of hearing impaired children. To them, being deaf is not something to be feared because they learned and played alongside deaf children in their formative years.

Don't forget Makaton as well for those who struggle with communication but aren't deaf.

A friend of mine was there when Minnie, and Tink signed for these little girls, and I was told they really had no idea it was going to happen. By the way, I don't believe Mickey and Minnie ever married. They're just really good friends.

Why is a commercial being presented as a news story?

Lovely story and good for Tinkerbell and the others. Is ASL like BSL but with poor spelling? Sorry, bad joke, but seriously, can ASL users converse easily with BSL users, or are they totally different?

OK, I was lazy, and I've looked it up myself. ASL and BSL are completely different, any similarities are coincidental. The reason I asked in the context of this article is to manage the expectations of British families visiting Disneyland in the hope of their deaf child signing with Tinkerbell. Not going to happen, I'm afraid. Expecting her and her colleagues to learn BSL as well as American would be a helluva big ask.

Shaylee discovered why Disney is the happiest place on Earth. So not a paid for advert, then?

Possibly, but if it makes one little girl happy it's worth it.

This was just a glorified advertisement for Disney, though still sweet.

No matter if the sentiments are good, this is still an advert and it is deliberately misleading by not displaying that fact.

So cute. I may sound ignorant here but I'm not tryin to be But surely the kid can still speak even if she's deaf? Or is it cos kids learn to speak by hearing people speak so if she's deaf she hasn't learned how to speak?

robinscatsReply toliv
Kids learn to speak by hearing the spoken word. Deaf people can learn to speak if they've got some residual hearing, but the pronunciation is off and it tends to sound garbled. You'll see them "speaking" the words with their mouth when they sign but they're not actually speaking and little sound comes out, more of a whisper type sound.
