Sign Language is super useful for an individual. As early as a few months old a baby can learn to sign and communicate with the parent. This reduces frustrations with communication between a child and a parent when they haven’t yet learned to speak yet. This is called baby sign language. Nowadays there is YouTube and the internet and also Skype. You can use a phone to sign to someone and video chat to be able to communicate remotely. You don’t have to be deaf or hard of hearing to learn this beautiful way of speaking.
