My wife is becoming deaf

actually this television mania is not the problem only with wife but also with everyone even when u will have your children and they are regular use of it than they will also be addicted to it. basically this has become a major disadvantage or a type of disease in my accordance this can only be cure if through your love you are trying your wife to avoid watching television. really if you are able to succeed to keep your wife away from all these serials than you are able to succeed to get through this. so try to help your wife in recovering from this mania and be patient for its result. there is no need of psychological doctor required for this. it will be naturally cured. so i hope that your wife will recover soon.

Hello bhanusb! I think I agreed with the first responder.Give her a phone and let it ring when you're coming..hehehe..Like what other responses here, that kind of addiction is hard to cure by yourself unless you go to an expert.

Is there a reason you don't have a key to your own home. Back to the question my mom is like that when she is reading a book. I don't know how to get through to her. I can be in the same room talking and she wont hear me at all. If someone has the answer to this let me know also.

get her a DVR box that way she can record her shows and watch them on her own time then when something else is going on she can pause it. I love my DVR.

She is becoming deaf? Na? I have a very good solution, if you apply, my aunty will get back her hearing power! Do you want to know what? Well, telling you! When going out, just tell her that "I will buy a new Sari, or Ornament, or Special dinner for you today"! You will see the result yourself; she will open the door even before you push the calling bell!

It is better to limit the TV watching hours and to be selective about the number of favourite programs per day.

This is something beyond your control! I've been married 3 times and they all suffered this affliction and it usually started the day after the honeymoon! Sorry pal! tdemex

It may be true that her hearing is being affected,not just that her attention is somewhere else. TV is generally an escape, maybe she is bored or upset with some parts of her life, be kind and loving what ever you do. Maybe get her additted to mylot.

Well i guess she must lower the volume of he television. Just explain it in a nice way though, not shaming her mistake. I am also a wife but I am not addicted to television nor watching television program , I devote some of my free time to work online. By the time that my hubby comes to home, since we don't have a door bell,he just simply knock the door slightly, just one tiny quiet knock, i'd be able to get the door even if I am in the kitchen cooking. Probably it helps my ears be sensitive to a slight noise, because I don't really like a place that is very loud and noisy . Anyway, i told already what ou should do, tell her that she should lower the volume, 10 decibels is harmful already.

give her a cell phone.. ask her to keep with herself every time so whenever u come home just ring her up and she would open the door for u:-)
