[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the PP in re Africa and China. I have two kids enrolled in Mandarin. Like any skills or education they put to use, I will strongly encourage it is for the good of humanity. And the example starts at home with our own paid and volunteer work. I don't really see how the observation was a hijack. There was some back and forth on which schools offered Mandarin when, and then a few more posts on opportunities. I did not weigh in until someone posted about speaking Mandarin in Africa on behalf of Chinese companies - as opposed to speaking French, English, Portuguese, Arabic or Kiwsahili. Then I commented. [/quote]I think it is admirable that you encourage your kids to use their Chinese for the good humanity, and you have made it a poibt to let all know that is how you will proceed. But allow others to utilize languages the way they see fit without vilifying their choices whether or not those choices agree with your life choices.[/quote]
