Our children are all deaf. Does that count as disabled? Also, one of them is autism.

It depends- the IRS definition of disabled is:

        Your child is permanently and totally disabled if both of the following apply:

• Your child can't engage in any substantial gainful activity because of a physical or mental condition.
• A doctor determines the condition has lasted or can be expected to last continuously for at least a year or can lead to death.

        Permanently and totally disabled.
