Most children with deafness born to hearing parents have language and
communication impairments, as a result of a possible limited access to language and to an
impoverished conversational environment. These linguistic and communicative
difficulties of children with deafness, which may exist despite the use of hearing aids, can
affect various aspects of their development. In particular, these difficulties may affect
negatively their ability to understand their own and others' emotions, and consequently,
their social functioning, their well-being, and academic success. Thus, this article focuses
on trying to explain how the different characteristics of deafness and their environment,
as well as the interaction between the two, can imply deficiencies in linguistic and
conversational input that affect their language and communication skills. At the same
time, we want to show how deficiencies in these linguistic skills can lead to difficulties in
different aspects of deaf children’s emotional comprehension, which can extend into
adulthood. In addition, we review some research that provides relevant ideas on how to
improve deaf children’s emotional understanding, which focuses mainly on the use of
conversational strategies to help children understand people’s emotions in different
situations
