[quote=Anonymous]Totally disagree. I see young people as much better off becoming fully bilingual, or trilingual, in languages they will speak regularly as adults than gaining fluency only in English and dabbling in a bunch of other languages. We've know two dozen YY kids in the neighborhood for years. We've never heard these kids speak Mandarin (which we speak fluently) to one another without being prompted by a Chinese-speaking adult. Not once. Not optimistic that most of these kids will be speaking good Chinese as older teens let alone adults Would love to be wrong.[/quote]
