[quote=Anonymous]so aside from the ignorance of OP question on the importance of the Spanish language and practical use in the world- we are raising our daughter bilingually for several reasons- 1- as her brain is forming- learning 2 languages as once will benefit the way she thinks and learns in general 2- starting this even before preschool- our goal is for her to be bilingual and biliterate. We think this will open many opportunities for her both in the US and abroad 3- my husbands native language is Spanish. It’s important to me she not only learns and appreciates his culture and language- but feels just as comfortable communicating with his side of the family as she is with mine. Even if 3 wasn’t the case- I understand why any parent would want to offer this to their child. And DC is actually ahead of the curve in this area of education. [/quote]
