[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We all have ideas about what we "should" be teaching our children, but then life takes over and you can't do it all. Just focus on creating well rounded good human beings. Another language early on is fantastic (even for kids with speech delays) but if it doesn't work for you in your family, it's ok. Just talk it them and love them. [/quote] This exactly. My child was very good in my native language until around 7 years old he refused to speak it. He understands some but refuses to speak. [/quote] +1 My SIL is Chinese and her parents, who only speak Chinese, live with them. My brother exclusively speaks English. So, their girls have been speaking Chinese + English since they could talk but the 7 yr old only reluctantly speaks Chinese now and the 4 yr old refuses to speak it unless absolutely necessary to communicate with her grandmother.
