[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The second gen kid I knew told his parents forcing the heritage language that he was American and had no interest in learning their heritage language. His priority was in being an American only.[/quote] I think that’s really sad and probably heartbreaking for the family…[/quote] NP but not really. Kids rebel. Especially in the early years of school when they want to conform to their peers. I am second gen and many of us did this, then came back to appreciate our culture and language a few years later (like MS/HS). Also, language school sounds boring. You need to play games, watch movies or do other fun things in the language. But don’t force them to do it if they don’t want to. They’ll come back around eventually. [/quote]
