[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am bilingual because my parents were immigrants and often talked to each other in their common language. I roll my eyes at a lot of this forced effort to make kids bilingual. Bring exposed to a big vocabulary and natural language patterns in a shared language (English or otherwise) is more important.[/quote] Totally disagree. As a child of an immigrant who did not speak to me in her native language - it was a missed opportunity. I wish my parents had undertaken the “forced” effort. There is a narrow window for kids to learn another language effortlessly and so much benefit to being bilingual. It is definitely worth dime mmm some effort on the part of parents! [/quote]
