Re: [lojban] Supporting Lojbanic babies.



  Yeah, I had the same thought! Imagine lojban as an Idioglossia.
 
   As far as the sign language, I agree with you, Robin.  The modalities are completely different.  People who are unfamiliar with the concept think that ASL is somehow related to English.  It isn't, in the slightest (my wife is fluent in ASL, and I'm... well, sorta fluent would be kind).  It just happens to be spoken by people in the same country.  And SEE is just cruel, and slows the deaf down.  So the concept of some sort of "lojbanic sign language" is just silly Now, on the other hand, using signs with kids IS a good idea, for the reasons Sebastian mentioned.

Congratulations, Robin!
 
After a certain time, the twins will speak between themselves, and the burden on you will thereby be lessened (I'm guessing).
