Cure Found to Help Deaf Babies Regain Complete Hearing

News!! "A biological cure has been found to help deaf babies regain their complete hearing by those who have nerve deafness, according to scientists who have made this miraculous discovery last year but now have put it to practical use."

Suppose ten years from now you will see that headline, seen above, blare across the front page of every major newspaper across the United States and even the world, what would your reaction be? With that discovery of a cure for nerve deafness (ie sensorineural deafess) for babies, kids, teens and adults, I'm sure parents would show a collective sigh of relief as they stampede toward the nearest audiologist or doctor office to get this newly available yet easy to use biological cure for their deaf babies. Should hearing parents go ahead and use this cure to help restore 100% of their baby's hearing loss and become that hearing person? Click on the poll survey below. There is only a "yes" or "no" answer. There is no "maybe" to choose from for obvious reasons.

Suppose ten years from now a cure has been found to restore nerve deafness completely, should parents go ahead and cure their baby's deafness?
Yes!
No!

UPDATE: Remember, this vote is about hearing parents of deaf babies. But by voting "No!" when a cure is readily available for deaf infants would that be construed as "child abuse" by limiting/denying that deaf baby that option to hear? In other words, are you suggesting to hearing parents that their deaf baby should, under no circumstances, be allowed to hear like any other hearing children when he/she grows up?
