A few totally random articles

One about the "benefits of bilingualism". Isn't most of the world bilingual? Shouldn't we therefore call this the detriments of monolingualism?

One on a girl who was banned from signing on the bus - despite being newly deaf and therefore needing not just to communicate but, one presumes, to practice - because it's "dangerous".

One article suggesting that daydreaming may either cause greater intelligence or be a sign of it.

One on the increased lethality of gut infections. Apparently, norovirus is a killer. Yup, I can believe it.

And one on young children cooking.

I actually used that second article for a paper I had to write for my ASL 2 class on deaf culture. Great article.
