(I reposted this video since KZread messed up the last one) Yes, a quiet room may have helped a little, I believe she still would have cried, for a couple reasons: 1. She is profoundly deaf. Without hearing aids, she would _start_ reacting to noise around 90dB. That is about as loud as standing next to a gas lawn mower. That was a whisper to her. So without the hearing aids, she was hearing _nothing_ . Hearing aids are not able to restore her hearing 100%. So even with the hearing aids, the room was not as loud to her as it is to us. It was louder than she's used to, of course, but certainly nowhere near painful - and she still cried anyway. 2. If you watch her cochlear implant activation ( kzread.info/dash/bejne/e4yK2aVqfrrLos4.html ), you'll see that it was a quiet room, but she still cried anyway. In both cases, it's just a new experience and she has no idea what's going on. But also in both cases, she adjusted very quickly. She was fine with them later the same day. When you're deaf, hearing _anything_ is a shock.

The other children are so misbehaved! Running around, making noise, slamming the toys into the table, playing with the chair

With 4 kids, you pick your battles or go insane. They were energetic, but not bad. Microphones (especially cheap ones in cameras) make things sound a lot more loud (and piercing) than it actually is in person. I'm sensitive to sound, and I don't remember being bothered by it at all.

@@ZenekandSashasHearing yes, but for the baby hearing for the first time, it is not appropriate for them to be doing such things

@@ZenekandSashasHearing I read your comment yes. But I think when a child is starting to hear the environment should be different. They should be careful if something is too loud because it COULD be scary or too much for them to take at once. it’s just some common sense. If you don’t agree, that’s up to you.

@@Random_Wierdo. Well when you're deaf, hearing anything unexpectedly is scary. If I could do it again, sure, I'd quiet down the boys as they were put on. But in the end it doesn't really matter. She still would have been scared and cried. And it's one blip in her life. She's 10 now and has cochlear implants which she loves to wear.

Too much strong noise for the first time
