[quote=Anonymous]You don’t need to move in order for your kids to be bilingual. But if you want to move, wouldn’t it make more sense to move somewhere within the US where they might better learn Spanish? In Montreal, you’ll either live in an anglophone enclave (many are Jewish) where your kids will learn French from anglophones and have anglophone friends, and they’ll never be truly comfortable with Quebecois French or fully immersed in Quebec culture. (Nothing necessarily wrong with this…unless the next referendum is “yes”). Or, you can try to fully immerse yourself, you won’t make friends easily and your kids will be bullied, but eventually they’ll be proper Francophones…and when they travel to France or any other French speaking country, everyone will be rude to them and ask them to speak English.
