[quote=Anonymous]Is there any harm to this? DS is 2yr 2 months and doesn't get screens, but for various reasons, I'd be willing to give him a little screen time if it had the added benefit of a new language. But is that going to screw with him learning english? I've studied Italian and Spanish (the former more than the latter, though I'm working on it) but while I can understand it when I hear it and read it, I can't really speak it. But I think if the tv is on in one of those languages, it will help me as well, and in turn I could maybe start speaking in basic Italian or Spanish from time to time with him. I understand he will not become fluent this way, and that's not really what I'm after, but I figure picking up a bit of a second language couldn't hurt--unless you tell me it could?[/quote]
