[quote=Anonymous]OP here, agree with this. My kid is old enough to resist to learn Chinese, and all I can do is sometimes I ask her to repeat some phrases word by word.

When she was a baby/toddler, my Chinese-speaking parents took care of her. Unfortunately, she did not learn any Chinese from them, and she did not talk at all (but understand Chinese back then), not even a single word at 2.5 years old. I was so worried about her speech, and I immediately placed her in a daycare with all English environment. In a few months, she started talking nonstop in English. I still don't get it why she did not talk at all under my parents' care but started talking once we put her in daycare environment.

Anyways, I will try some chinese school. I hear about that, but I am told that mostly kids speak English at the class. Unfortunately my friends' kids can speak both English & Chinese, so I need to make some mom friends with kids that only know how to speak Chinese or likes to speak Chinese a lot. Thank you.[/quote]
