[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If being around cousins is stressful for your child, I would stop the visits. We also speak another language at home and I am being pretty adamant about not using English - it's really hard to raise a bilingual child when all they hear is English. When my nephews visit us, I talk to them my native language only (they understand), even if they respond in English. When we visit them, I switch to English as that is what they do at their house. [/quote] Well, they don't correct my child. But SIL corrects theirs (my brother - not so much). they don't say anything but I think they are thinking that my son is the reason because they start speaking English... What stresses my son is not being around cousins per se, it's the amount of time. So I think I will structure the visits a bit differently. [/quote]
