[quote=Anonymous]OP here. thanks. DC is not bilingual either, but neither am I (learned chinese later but didn't speak it growing up), so it's comforting to know there are at least a sprinkling of families out there who can speak it or support language strongly at home. And hopefully help out other families in the in the class, too. I know people are a little freaked out by not being able to understand the language your kid is going to school in but (a) you are getting half english, so you're really not out of the loop and (b) tens of millions of immigrant parents deal with this all the time and their kids still can excel. Encouraging and supporting your kid is 90% of the battle, in my view. [/quote]
