Hey people

im 15 and im trying to decide what i want to be when im older. I was hoping to be a commercial airlines pilot. However, i have a hearing loss in both ears and i wear hearing aids. I can hear most things fine with them, and am not usually affected. Am i able to be a pilot under law?

Melanie P asked:


i’ve had a hearing loss since birth but didn’t know until kindergarten. i wore hearing aids in kindergarten until high school because i felt too embarassed to wear them although my mom kept encouraging me too and sometimes we had fights about it. i really don’t like the kinds that go behind your ears. it makes me feel uncomfortable and embarassed around other people. i don’t think the tiny ones would be useful with my type of hearing loss. i have normal hearing in my right ear and 80% of hearing loss in my left ear. in kindergarten we went to 2 people for opinions about hearing aids. one said no and the other said yes. i feel more comfortable without them. i had a lot of trouble at a college i was at. i was on academic probation twice. im at another college now. what do u think i should do?

humbledpie3 asked:


Help! The glue of our family is suffering from hearing loss and everyone is always shouting now. We need help! I know that the obvious answer is a hearing aid, but they are very expensive and I am almost positive that there is an old wives tale out there somewhere that might actually work. Can anybody out there help us?

Ruthinia asked:


These are older individuals. I also see a lot of denial in them as in they won’t get a hearing aid.
LOL Mike. That was great.
