[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Culture is cultivated, not taught in schools. Likewise, children have to want to cultivate it or it won't really take. [/quote] +1 Culture is bred into you - you can not artificially create it. [/quote] But how does it happen for my kid, if - I am not initially part of English language culture, though I am relatively well versed in it; - I am in a somewhat of a cultural vacuum - there are cultured people from my old country but they aren’t much of a influence on my kid, and there is no local cultural scene really, and if there is, I am not part of it. This thread has a lot of great advice though. Results not guaranteed but trying can be fun in itself! -OP[/quote]
