I can’t imagine what sort of trouble poor John was expecting to hear about the first time the teacher called him. The premise is very interesting and this first installment of it was extremely well done.

You do an absolutely fantastic job with the John POV and capturing his concern for his son while struggling to keep everything together. I definitely look forward to more!

Heh. When the kindergarten teacher called ME, it was because my daughter had put a rock in her ear and they couldn't get it out so could I please get her to the doctor right away. You never really know what to expect with these things :)
Thank you so much for your review! I am really glad that you liked it!

Oh, poor little Dean, no wonder he was slurring his words.
Hmm, what is wrong with him? Thankfully John is willing to get him help, even though he's struggling with keeping all the balls in the air at the moment. That was a very sad and poignant thought of his that it would have been Mary who would normally be having the meetings with teachers.

Oh thank you for reviewing! You're made of awesome!
I've never believed that John didn't love the boys or want the best for them. He was just thrown into a situation that was too much to handle. As a result, he made mistakes. I love him for being so flawed.
As to what's wrong with Dean....writing about a serious hearing loss is interesting because I have known a few people who have struggled with this. I've thrown in a few of their experiences as I've written.
Thank you again for reviewing!

Awww, poor John! I hope this is something that gets remedied easily. That family has had enough bad luck.

Author's Response:
I know. I'm so mean to them! This isn't really anything that's going to be fixed. This is going to be an exploration about how it might be to cope. We'll see where it leads!
Thank you for your review! I appreciate it TONS!

Oh my dear lord!
What are you doing to my boys? I love this approach. There have been other deaf!Dean stories I read but this one has a unique perspective.
I like your approach (I always do, you know that, you just have a special way of writing...). This story has a very real feel to it and I am a little sad now. Poor baby boy and poor John. I can really see that you are writing from a POV of a person who has worked with kids. Many things the teacher said to John about how she observed weird behavior and the likes would be things that I would tell a parent too. There are hints in a child's behavior that give you clues to deeper and more troubling issues. I like how your expertise shines through.
Dude, poor guilt-stricken and overstrained (think that s the word) John. Aw, hope he can cope with this newly added burden.
Also I have to say I am so hooked already I was sorry to see the chappie end so soon. Can I has an update soon? Please?
Oh, and don't you like the banner Cal made? She rocks so much...
Lookin forward to the next installment. *hits favorite story button*
Take care, sweetie!

Thank you!!! It IS a different approach, and I am really excited about exploring this for awhile.
I'm glad I still have the teacher voice :) I think it might be like riding a bicycle. You never forget what it's like.
I have two other stories written that will fit here, and I'm working on the fourth. I always swore I wouldn't do a work in progress- I don't think I would ever finish it. This is more like a series of short stories or snippets in what the Winchester's life might be like if....We'll see where it leads!
Cal did a GREAT job! I love it!
Thank you so much for your review, and saying lots of nice things and being so cool yourself!

Hey hun.
an interesting premise and a definite challenge for a future hunter. As if he doesn't have enough on his plate!

Author's Response: I know! I felt bad doing it, but not for that long :) Thank you for your review!

Oh, how sad. I did not see that coming at all, that Dean may actually be deaf. That would explain so much with his ignoring his teacher, John, and little Sammy. I can't wait to see what you are planning to do with this story.

Author's Response: Thank you! Right now I have several little snippets exploring this idea. I decided to put them under one title, each chapter its own story. I'm not quite sure where it will lead, but I'm excited about it!
