[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother went to first grade in Sweden not knowing a word. He picked it up. Can't believe how selfish people are. I bet the kid who is translating is picking up a valuable skill both in improving their english and spanish and the development of empathy. [/quote] Hmm... Affluent 7yr old goes to an affluent country and learns Swedish at a young age when everyone is also just learning to read in 1st grade. Swedish kids also get English lessons and 86% can speak English. Pretty sure this is not even close to a decent analogy. [/quote]
