No, I am actually uncomfortable at this point with the decision I made to get my daughter a CI, something she really does not want. If she takes it off when she is 18 or 21, all the more power to her.

I am well aware of the facts of that story, but it is a very old story - at this point, 8 years old. So much has changed within the Deaf and deaf community regarding cochlear implants. And, its ONE story. While the Sound and the Fury is a good story, it is not the ONLY story, and it is ONE perspecctive.

Maybe it's none of my business, but I am curious anyway, why do you regret getting your daughter a CI?
