My mom and brother are hard of hearing.
Decades ago, the local school system offered SEE classes to family members of students that were receiving services.
Years later, I used baby signs with my children.
Now I want to learn ASL. Honestly for the first time since SEE and "baby sign" are not ASL. Sure, there are crossover signs, but that only gets one so far.
I also have occasional aphasia, so I'm hoping that learning ASL will do two things 1)offer me a resource when I get stuck and 2) help me recall when I get stuck.

Hi there. I live in Michigan and yes, we do use our hand to show where we live or where another town is.
It's a rather convenient map since it is always with you. 😂
I have an amazing husband of 25 years, 8 children, 2 granddaughters, a silly chiweenie, and a black cat.
My mom and brother are hard of hearing. My mom has a cochlear.
Decades ago I took an SEE class. The school system was offering it to families of students that were deaf or hearing impaired. I say it that way, because that was the school systems mindset on the topic.
I'm live in Michigan ✋

Hello,
I do know some ASL. I know that some signs from SEE crossover. And of course "baby sign" is it's own pidgen of both.
I am interested in learning more ASL signs along with the language itself.
I would be to happy to chat with you.
