[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see the benefit of learning other languages. Just not one that *a* is only so big in this country right now because so many people are breaking laws and we gave up, and *b* that will allow my kids to either mow lawns or clean houses.

Bring on Mandarin, German, French, or any number of other useful languages. [/quote]

Do you really live in DC yet have never met any of the thousands of Spanish-speaking professionals in universities, embassies, multilateral agencies, government? Well, your loss. And your kids', unless you wake up.

Parent of perfectly bilingual English-Spanish DC who's also learning Mandarin.[/quote]

There's a world of difference between "DC" and the suburbs in Virginia. Thankfully I'm in the suburbs in VA. Although here all the landscapers and housecleaners can't speak a lick of English. But keep on keepin' on![/quote]

Lol. DC is a "world" away for you only because you have created such a small world for yourself. Sad. You're right, Spanish would be useless to you. Keep being so "perceptive" in the burbs. [/quote]
