Description
A cochlear implant gives a deaf child access to sound, but language grows at home. Faisl Alqraini explores how Saudi families support that growth in a solo 2025 interview study.
Eighteen parents in Riyadh, ten mothers and eight fathers of children aged two to twelve, described their daily efforts. Four themes emerged: family support and engagement, parents' confidence and language strategies, views of professional services, and early intervention. Families prized steady home practice, sibling involvement, and routines that fit their culture. They also reported thin access to services and poor coordination between providers. The study calls for family-centered programs that build parent confidence and start help early.
