[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4th grader: piano 1x a week math comp class 1x a week heritage language school - 6hrs on sat but includes chess + lego robotics + add. language[/quote] Very tiger [/quote] Learning your heritage language while doing fun activities isn’t tiger parenting, it is helping to maintain family heritage. [/quote] For 6 hrs every Saturday? Please. Parents can teach heritage through their every day lives at home. [/quote] We have never participated in language school but the people I know who do appreciate the time spent with people from their country, the use of language, and the social interaction. That is not being a tiger parent, that is prioritizing understanding your heritage and language. Heritage is more than just speaking the language. Some of us live in communities like us and can learn those traditions and history easily enough, not everyone has that benefit. [/quote] Disagree. It’s tiger parenting. Most of the kids hate it. We know a lot of them. [/quote] So sounds like you wouldn't prioritize heritage language, it's your choice! But let other families do what they think best, be in 3 travel sports or an additional language. [/quote]
