Dear Editor-in-Chief

In positive psychology literature, resilience is among indexes that help one to adjust with nega-tive situation and have better function (1, 2). Resilience is shaped in family context and could be fostered (3-7). Better parenting styles have con-structive effects on resilience skill (1, 5). This index has been studied in various popula-tions whom have experienced hard psychological situation (8). Deafness has been a hard condition and deaf cases due to their hearing impairment may encounter social and communicational limita-tions in hearing world (9, 10). These limitations and disability may cause communication handicap. Nurturing resilience skills could help deaf person adjust and have better function in education, com-munication and social life and also prevent or de-crease experiencing negatives feelings that is caused by hearing impairment and may develop handicap (11). So fostering resilience in deaf cases may prevent probably induced communicative handicap and increase one’s quality of life
