I figured it out. Daphne is the way she is because she's an only child, well she was raised like one. She only knows how to take and not share. That's why she reacts so negatively to Bay hanging out with Regina, or Emmett. I want to put Ty name down because her and Regina are like he's family but on the real they did not care about that man.

They never call Daphne out for acting like a spoiled brat.. well like Toby that one time

I so wish I kept wish ASL back in high school but even then (cuz of this show!!) I learned some but not enough to talk with it.. I can kinda tell signs but not enough to know know. Sigh need an app like Duolingo but for ASL.. all the ones I find aren’t free after one or two lessons. Or just aren’t helpful. I used to use lifeprint but I like how Duolingo is laid out more like ‘game’ lessons to help idk.

Rewatching Switched At Birth AGAIN.

One really frustrating thing that I haven't seen many people talk about is that there are several times where it is brought up that Carlton School is struggling financially and the Kennishes witness them lose programs and the school itself almost close, but yet NOT ONCE do they offer to donate money to the school BOTH THEIR DAUGHTERS GO TO.

John gets so upset when they cut the basketball team but then a few episodes later complains about how much money he gives to Buckner sports or whatever. Like DUDE ARE YOU DENSE??? You have one child still attending the rich white people school and he gives exactly zero fucks about going there so what are you even giving them the money for?

And Bay remarks that Kathryn could fund raise $5,000 out of mission hills in minutes but yet she never thinks to fund raise for Carlton? Even when she is literally at the school fighting to keep the play going? Not once does this ever occur to her??

I know it is mentioned in the episode where Daphne talks to the school board that the board is just full of bigots who only give money to the schools they favor but the Kennishes had so much power and could have done so much but they didn't and it makes me so upset.

To be fair, I guess we wouldn't have had the occupy carlton storyline if they had helped and that storyline was SO important for Deaf representation and raising awareness for how Deaf people are treated in the educational system.

But still. John and Kathryn suck for being rich and not using it to help Carlton.

Katherine accusing Bay of putting Daphne up to get money from them to help Emmett keep his bike was messed up. Like yes Bay is dating him however Daphne has known him longer than her and ultimately it would have been more so her idea

Switched at Birth is an interesting show!

Hey guys! I’m here to do a review for the show “Switched at Birth!” I love this show because it’s so easy to get absorbed into! The music sets the mood and the tone for the show. It’s dramatic to pull in the viewer’s attention and keep them engaged. It’s emotional to help the viewer empathize with the characters. The show is about two girls, Bay Kennish and Daphne Vasquez, who discover they were…

[homosandhomies]

Interesting facts on the third draft of the Switched at Birth pilot:

It originally took place in Austin, Texas

Kathryn’s original name was Kristen

Bay and Toby have an 11-year-old brother named Luke

Luke takes Daphne on the house tour and she teaches him how to sign “wow” “creepy” “crazy” “stupid” “poo” “boobs” and a bunch of other words throughout the episode

Daphne generally signs a lot more to the Kennishes

Daphne’s on the track team instead of basketball, and she’s part of the student council and honors society

The line “It’s her hears that don’t work, not her brain” was originally “She’s deaf, John, not [r-word]”

John was a professional golfer instead of a baseball player

Instead of playing basketball with Toby she plays golf with John

Adrianna calls Regina “Reggie”

Melody is a gay man named Penn

Bay and Liam never dated, but he does have his scene with Daphne at Buckner

There’s a scene where Bay and Simone are hanging out and Bay makes fun of the way Daphne speaks and signs

Bay gets arrested for driving without a liscence because Simone was too drunk, not for buying beer with a fake ID

Daphne’s too emotional to speak orally during the scene in the kitchen with her and Regina, so she just signs

Bay calls Daphne her “swister” in the bedroom scene

Regina isn’t behind on rent, so they only move in to get to know each other

Thinking about writing a more realistic fanfic if the switched never happened. I just feel like the tv show episode over looked some pretty big deal tales
