[quote=Anonymous]It all depends on you/your family/interest, etc. Much easier to practice Spanish and use it daily, less so with Chinese. But as a tonal language (and speaking from the experience of learning Chinese as an adult), Chinese is much easier to learn when young. Though one's accent in Spanish would also be presumably better if learned as a child. I really think it depends on the parents and how much effort they want to put in... Spanish is more effortless - a ton of opportunities all around us to practice. Chinese requires more of an effort. My DC is at YY and I chose Chinese over Spanish because of my own connections to the language and culture. You can't really go wrong with Spanish so I would only choose Chinese if you /your family has a singular desire for your children to learn that language. [/quote]
