[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am having some struggles understanding the culture around the immersion school my kids go to. It seems that so many families don't care and don't even try to speak the immersion language. I get that they may never speak it, but is it hard to at least try to seem interested? At a recent 1st grader's birthday party, the parents didn't even know the happy birthday song in that language. After 4 years of their kid immersed in that language?? I just don't get it. Can anyone explain to me? It seems such a waste to have kids in an immersion school if the parents aren't supporting/encouraging it Rant over.[/quote] I haven’t read all this thread but OP, you sound judgmental and condescending to the extreme. So what if the parents didn’t want to sing the birthday song who are fluent and so what if some parents don’t know it in Spanish. In no way does that equate that families either don’t care or are not supporting or encouraging their kid. Frankly, the ass you sound like, I’m surprised families accepted your kids bday invitation at all. [/quote]
