Peppa Pig Peppa Pig and brother George, who will wear a hearing aid in upcoming episodes of the cartoon after the family learns he has moderate hearing loss in one ear. I’d grown up as a child of deaf parents, but television never showed families like mine. That’s why the new Peppa Pig storyline, in which George (Peppa’s younger brother) is revealed to be deaf, feels so powerful. And as a child myself of deaf parents, I know that seeing stories like this could have helped my parents feel more visible when they were raising me.
