[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Employer of lawn service here. Point out in my post where I said the guy who cuts my grass is a "loser" or that I "think he is" a loser. Or even implied that. Here's what I do think: I think he and the millions of bilingual people living in the US aren't necessarily geniuses with massive advantages over monolingual people in the US. This contradicts the Kool-Aid fueled mantra of many young white DC parents who like to post on DCUM. That is all. [/quote] Research shows that, all things being equal, bilingual education has brain development and other academic benefits. Your comparison is bogus since you are comparing against a population that had worse education and several other disadvantages from the start. [/quote] What percentage increase is it? Are you talking 50% smarter? Or 0.5% smarter?[/quote]
