[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does DH not speak your language?! He needs to step up. [/quote] +1. My husband speaks Hebrew to our children; I speak English to them. My Hebrew isn't great, but it's important to us that our children grow up in a bi-lingual home, so I'm learning Hebrew right along with them. [/quote] I'm a pp who has 2 sisters in law that English is not their primary language. In the case of the one who would only speak her native language with child (and his now divorced from my brother)--he did try to learn her language. It is a language considered one of the more difficult ones to learn (for English speakers) and has a completely different writing system (Asian language.) It doesn't matter now. A judge in family court decided that even if she wants to speak to her children exclusively in her language, they aren't with her more than 50% of the time. [/quote]
