[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t overthink it. They will learn English everywhere. Speak the minority language.[/quote] +1 OP, make the switch now. [b]Within four years (kindergarten) their world might be almost exclusively in English. It's shocking how quickly and easily kids make that transition, so don't worry about that part. [/quote][/b] Similar: my bestie (a single mom) went to graduate school in France and took her 5-year old daughter along (duh). She enrolled her daughter in public Kindergarten and within 5 months the daughter was not only fluent in French but preferred it to English (her brain had "made the switch.") Kids learn incredibly fast. [/quote]
