I have a friend who got his first daughter a hearing test. The audiologist delayed the test twice until he finally gave up.

His daughter was able to hear instructions like “go get your socks” but since she was two and not talking, they leapt to the conclusion that it was probably hearing related.

Three years later, I still make fun of him for it but at the time I tried to keep a straight face.

Ironically, he’s a medical doctor himself.






In some places babies get a hearing test by default, definitely took one thing off our list of worries.
