[quote=Anonymous]My kid is taking Chinese in high school because it's harder for most people. Not because it will be remotely relevant to him later in life. While most Chinese speak, or at least can understand, Mandarin, those Chinese that he will come into contact with will most likely speak English better than he can speak Chinese. He's taking Chinese because he's not good with languages and many kids are so good with Spanish that he would be left behind in an instant. He's dyslexic but musical and hopes that Chinese will level that playing field.[/quote]
