[quote=Anonymous]A lot of German families here! My mom came from Germany as well, and my dad is American, but I was lucky to grow up with my German-speaking grandmother next door who spoke German with my mom a lot, so I consider myself fluent-ish. I do try to expose my kids to some aspects of German culture I loved as a kid (like now, we are listening to a lot of German Christmas songs.) My daughter knows some numbers, colors etc but that's it. I'm not a native speaker so it was never easy for me to speak German to my own kids, and I'm sure when they're grown their kids won't know any German at all but they might retain some of the songs and food aspects of the culture I imagine.[/quote]
