My five year old daughter is quite precocious. It is funny how she can never hear me when I am reprimanding her or telling her to do something. It is funny how the radio is never loud enough when it is her favorite song or the television is not loud enough when it is her favorite show.
One day we were in the car and I had the radio turned down very low when she shouts, “Turn it up! This is my favorite song!”
I couldn’t believe it! My daughter who feigns deafness most of the time could detect her favorite song at the lowest sound level – even I couldn’t tell what song it was. After her song was over, I turned down the radio again and I commented, “That sure is interesting how you can hear the radio when it is barely on, but you can’t hear anything else.”
Sitting in back all smug she replied, “Yeah. It must be my ‘sensible’ hearing.”
