[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So people prefer Spanish so that their kids will better be able to communicate with their day care providers, housekeepers, and other Spanish speakers. And Chinese folks don't like Yu Ying because they don't get a preference in admissions. Funny what you learn on DCUM.[/quote] Hee hee!! So true! Not only that, but I'm pretty sure ABC parent's forefathers came to America, learned to speak English, probably spoke it imperfectly and with an accent, but guess what? I bet they were still able to communicate effectively and with the expectation that people would understand they were not native speakers and would therefore not make fun of them! ABC woman, do you realize how you sound? Are you seriously saying that if people can't learn to speak a language with a perfect accent they should never try at all?? Sheesh![/quote]
