Juggling With Eggs

Now I think it was perhaps none of the neighbour’s business to ask about the new tenant, but given they had complained bitterly about every single previous tenant, the landlord was just keen to get them on side and restore calm to the neighbourhood.

The implication that anyone over the age of 70 is deaf and going to have their tv on loud is unfounded.

But it’s also sadly a sign that some think it’s acceptable to discriminate against those who are #deaf.
