12. Now there's a valid point.
"Selective hearing" might be the case.

13. She knows.
She may not want to admit it, but she knows.

(From one who is also going deaf but not afraid to admit it)

14. Check first, just to be sure.
Whisper something into her ear like, "Your mom can live with us while I do all the housework and buy you anything you need forever!"

If she doesn't respond she is deaf.

If she does respond, well, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing she's not deaf."
