Falling while pregnant causing Deafness!
This is one claim that I have never herd before but is completely ridiculous. I can see how everyone wants to attribute differences and such to some concrete cause but I definitely don't see this being true. As the book describes, deafness is usually expressed through a gene. I think that this would deeply sadden the mother and cause her to believe that she has done something to cause their child to be deaf.
On a lighter note I am really glad that falling does not cause deafness because my mother is one of the clumsiest people I know.
