[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This. The problem as much a paternalistic mindset as an issue of scale.[/quote] Sure, you can send your kid to German classes outside school, but realize their DC public middle school is v. likely to make them take a different language coterminously and, arguably, needlessly. In the US context, this tends to mean that the kid ends up weak in 2 languages as a teen. The system leaves a lot to be desired. As has been pointed out, things tend to be different in the burbs.
