it is real sad to know that spike will end up deaf. it sounds like it will be some accident???
but also having lived in Delavan, Wisconsin - it is not a huge shock. delavan has wisconsin's school for the deaf. there is a large population of deaf people living in the town. and my ex-fiance-ass had a cousin a little younger than kallie who is deaf - basically be neglect from her mom. too busy getting drunk to worry about ear infections.
i know this is a soap and losing your hearing is a huge deal. i'm am glad spike is young enough to not know any other way. it does not hinder the quality of their life.
basically i am really glad something really really awful didn't happen. maybe i can teach erica some sign language - not the best but i picked some up!!!!!! esp since we were always babysitting for my ex-ass's cousin!!!!!!!!!!

I think it's ridiculous that they can't think of ways to write layered storylines for the adults on the show, exploring the child abuse that the Lavery's went through, breast cancer SL for Erica, romance for.... well, ANYONE....poverty for the Chandlers, maybe even seeing what happens when young people (Colby and Sean?) get married early and try to learn how to be adults in a short period of time. How about another natural disaster? Like tornadoes rushing through PV and everyone has to take cover. Or what about another big party? On the yacht maybe? And there's a crash that leaves everyone stranded on Babe and Josh's island for a little while? The only thing they can think of to get ratings is to harm a baby. It's sick, and I say this honestly, if it weren't for you guys and me wanting to stay in touch with you I would drop this show right now like a hot pan.

This must be a left over from McT because she's the one who recycles her own crap within one year. This is really the same thing as JR's pile-o-bricks at Spike's birth (and that went over REAL well, McT just had to do it again).
I doubt Spike will be deaf for the rest of his life. He'll have some miracle cure. But having a child born with a problem like that (instead of it being caused by--of all things--a car crash) would be an interesting storyline for the parents.

true - they really need to quit harming children (which colby and sean are, too) and bring out the real characters and adult sl's. they have made the show humorous to watch cause it's pathetic. most -well a ton of pv residents are rich. realistically partys etc would happen a lot more. no - we don't need a bomb again but look at GH. even oltl with the tornado where duke died and now the fires and deaths by a white power group. oltl makes me nap but at least sometimes the pull something off.
and gh - the show freakin rocks!!!!!! i know jason seems to be a gawd and liz needs to die now that the baby is born - but they bring in killer drama. the hotel fire, the killer illness luke's monkey brought etc etc!!!!!
come on amc - step it up and leave the kids alone!!!!

didn't see ur post minkie!!!! i kept leaving my post to watch amc - it took forever to write it!! ;D
it would be an interesting story if he was born deaf. but the quality of his life would be surprisingly good. kendall being kendall would make it a good sl cause it's spikey - she would be drama queen freakin out!

I'm with you Plat. I think it's disgusting that they are doing this to one of the children on the show instead of writing for the adults. AMEN!! to the Lavery abuse s/l. I've wanted that for a looooong time. I find it hard to watch anymore myself.

I think we should sue. All the way to the Supreme Court, baby! I'd love to be a complainant in Laverylovers vs Zidiots. ;D

The Zidiots scare me, but we have the secret weapon on our side - we live in this beautiful little world named Reality ;D I say the Lovers can take on the Delusional one
