[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our child attends Yu Ying but neither DH or I know Mandarin although we are both bilingual. The only language the three of us have in common is English. LOL! It's really not a big deal... Our kid manages fine. Is not unhappy or confused and if asked will tell you that he likes English and Mandarin the same; is just as happy during Chinese day as English day at school. He started at YY when he was 4 so having Mandarin at school is "normal" for him. He does not need help with homework and is above grade level in all subjects. Not knowing the immersion language has been a non-issue for us so far.[/quote] If you are both bilingual, was there a reason you did not teach your child either of your native languages?[/quote]
