[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re new at the bus stop for summer school. This is MCPS if it matters. I’m not a Chatty Cathy. Not even a wave or eye contact is pretty harsh especially when the person will then chat with other people. [/quote]

This happens to me all the time. They don’t acknowledge me but are super friendly with other people. I am Latina and speak Spanish to my kids, so perhaps they think I don’t speak English.[/quote]

Why do you speak Spanish to your kids? In front of other people? Are you being performative?

So now speaking your native language to your kids is wrong?  I guess we have found another thing that social justice warriors and right wing racists agree on.[/quote]

It is generally considered rude to speak another language in mixed company.[/quote]

No, not its not. Try to tone down the jealousy. Every parent in the DMV is paying thousands a year for foreign-language immersion for their kids and you're just mad PP can do it on it her own and ensure her kids fluency in a second language without anyone else.[/quote]
