[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are very clear in matching, handbook, and training that we expect APs to speak English with their friends in front of us. The only exception is when a friend (or family member) comes to visit and doesn't speak English. If a friend is an AP, then we expect both of them to speak English in front of us and the children. No one wants to feel like an outsider in their own home or car by not understanding the discussion. No one has had a problem with this. Our APs can have friends over as much as they want, so this is a small price to pay.[/quote] omg lol wait what really i guess since i speak german it bothers me less but i don't expect people to speak my language just because i'm also present [/quote] Thats called being polite not excluding people from conversation when visiting someone's home. Its one thing if the other person doesn't know English but to intentionally speak another language is rude.[/quote]
