If you can afford it what a great way for the next generation to learn about other cultures and the world. Will help them negotiate/adapt to globalization.

Niece is going to Missoula Montana. I know it isn't "abroad", but it will be different.

I did a semester abroad (in UK) 25 years ago and it is still one of my fondest memories....

PPs, stress to your kids that to achieve fluency, they really need to make friends outside their circle of other American exchange students. When I did this (ages ago) this was definitely a risk, more so since not all the classes were in the foreign language.

Full year/two semesters.


OP here. A full year sounds great. Long enough to really immerse yourself into the culture. Your DC will come back quite fluent no doubt.
