[quote=Anonymous]We have a kid in a one-way immersion program. We don’t speak the language at home (though both parents can understand it at about 75%). No issues with kid learning to read or write in English. At 10 (3rd grade), they have been exposed to <5000 hrs of the immersion language. Assuming 10-hr days of consciousness since birth on average, that is out of 36,500 hours in English. Assuming your kid learns typically, do not let this anxiety stop you from giving your kid the absolutely mind-blowing life benefit of being multilingual. Really.[/quote]
