[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm bilingual and moved here as a child. My parents moved back and live in their home country. I did not bother teaching my child my native language. DS has AS and attends a Chinese immersion language school. Neither my husband nor I speak Chinese but DS is doing very well. I'm not sad about my son not knowing my native language at all. I rarely get to use it and most people in my country speak English and/or Chinese. I figure if my DS wants to learn it, he can. It's much easier than English or Mandarin.[/quote] We asked our SLP about being in an immersion program when DS was being evaluated for a diagnosis and according to her, as long as he receives services in English (understands the instruction) it does not make any difference. Next yredit K, he will be receiving supports /services bilingually. [/quote]
