I'm deaf in one ear and 70db loss in the other, just wanted to say nobody cares what you call it as long as you aren't an asshole about it. Being pediatric helps nobody

Did you mean pedantic (annoyingly corrective) or pediatric (child(ish))?

pedantically, pediatric means child (paithi) doctor (iatros) -ish... Apologies for the transliteration into latin letters.

People care. Just because you (n=1) don't doesn't mean "nobody cares". It is always good to be openminded and understand other people's point of view.
