Hearing children of deaf parents (CODA) are, by their very nature, on the border between the culture of the hearing and the culture of the Deaf. Most deaf parents have hearing children, so it is time to try to approach this biculture. Our goal is to find out how CODA people manifested themselves as children and how the clash of these cultures affected them. The manifestation of these cultures was examined in six sub-areas within the childʼs CODA development. The main research method was semi-structured interviews with seven individuals from the target group. The output is a summary of recommendations at the general level on how to approach CODAs and what to avoid in relation to them. We come to the conclusion that CODA individuals are not negatively affected by this biculturalism; they are able to integrate into society in a standard way and above all to benefit from the specifics of their childhood.
