[quote=Anonymous]No one so far has asked about the child! Does she LOVE her language classes? If she does and you honestly feel this is her choice and not your pushing then why not indulge her if you can? As the parent of children at a 50/50 Spanish immersion ES who speaks perfect non-native Spanish but whose husband does not, true fluency is a real challenge. You can hear see and feel the difference between my kids and their friends with two native speaking parents who always speak Spanish at home. Nothing but FULL immersion school plus at least one native speaker at home will lead your child to a true biliterate fluency level but every little bit helps. Cultural awareness, a limited ear training and an awareness of the relativity of language are, however, all achievable with the language lesson approach from an early age. [/quote]
