Summary/Abstract: It is often said that deafness impoverishes interactions between deaf child and his/her hearing parents. Deafness cannot be regarded as the only reason for the delay of child’s general development. It rather creates certain conditions which can restrict his/her cognitive, social, and linguistic development. This paper presents visual and tactile strategies used by deaf parents for communicating effectively with their young children. These parents do it being conscious of practical consequences of restriction on child’s perceptional access to linguistic information during interactions. But hearing parents are unlikely to discover such techniques spontaneously. Using specific strategies consistently is a real challenge for them. Hence early intervention programs should consider particular strategies that can be helpful in supporting family members in their linguistic interactions with deaf children.
