Quiet. Probably annoying, since most people unless they're deaf, or are close to someone deaf, don't know your language. But probably also nice, since deaf communities are closely knit. If you're interested in learning more about Deaf culture or ASL, you may enjoy the book: For Hearing People Only by Matthew Scott Moore and Linda Levitan.

What language do deaf people think in?
Deaf people think in the language that they speak, which is usually (but not always) the local sign language.
What language does a deaf person think in if they have never heard speech - do they think in sign language?
Some people think with ideas, not words. Just because a person is deaf doesn't mean that they don't (or can't) read. That said, one would tend to believe that they "think" in whatever language is native to themselves (for example, English or ASL). Yes, they would tend to think just like hearing people do, but when we "verbalize" our thoughts, they would likely think out the motions of the sign they would use. It is hard to imagine this, just like it would be hard for a deaf person to imagine what hearing feels like.

Why do you think it is important for deaf children to learn sign language?
Sign language allows deaf children to communicate their thoughts, needs, and ideas to others. Sign language is the language of the deaf, just as Spanish is the language of Hispanics. Deaf children need to learn language just like all children need to learn language. Why is it important for anyone to learn to talk? The same reasons apply here to deaf children.So that they communicate with other people rather than writing down what they want to say. Plus they can't learn new weird unless they use dictionary pronunciation, because they are deaf.
