[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t give up, I am the child of a parent that gave up. It is part of their culture, they will feel excluded, even if they can only understand. Keep trying so they can speak and connect with their elders and it is also a benefit for future job marketability.[/quote] Who will they speak with? The op and her husband speak English 90% of the time. So it’s not like the kids will even have the opportunity to speak it at home. Among themselves and with other kids, they’ll also be speaking English cause it’s easier for them even at the language school, unless there is an adult is there forcing them to switch. It’ll be a lot of effort with minimal result unless they’ll also be willing to switch to speaking their heritage language at home. [/quote]
