Yes. First of all, deafness is NOT a disablity. In the words of many deaf people, "I can do anything a hearing person can do except hear."

And deaf people are not meant to be pitied. At all. They are perfectly capable of living in this world deaf. They don't need our pity. Wouldn't it be annoying if everyone pitied you?

You cannot put deafness and blindness into the same category. Deaf people have a culture and a language (yes, sign language is a language), while blind people do not.

You may value your hearing, but they value their deafness. Especially if they've never heard anything, and they learn how to function like the majority.

In conclusion, people should stop pitying them, and stop calling them disabled, because they are not. At all.
