i would definitely teach my kids chinese, either that or put them through chinese school. i totally also feel that it is sad to see chinese people who can only speak english.
we have 2 young kids (8 & 5) and we tried teaching them canto at home, as we can spaek a little, they need to be totally immersed in chinese at home to be able to speak it
You'll feel even worse when their white or black friend speaks even better Chinese than them, LOL....
i'll definitely get my kids to learn chinese one way or another. like what most before me have said, it's not ideal to have chinese people who can only speak english.
i will definitely teach my children chinese. it is always better to learn more language,so they can communicate with other people. they can also be able to speak a language when they meet a foreign countries
I will definetly want my kids ot learn chinese and by chinese i mean cantonese because i really would hate it if my kids didnt know chinese the only problem is that there arent many cantoese guys around my area most are manderine and i dont want my future kids to be learning manderine and not cantonese
Chinese will be their 1st language, English will be 2nd... and French is after... and hopefully Mandarin...
well let me ask you a question... Why not? the more languages you know... you can have a lot benefit.
I have no desire or plans for kids, but I may change my mind in the future. I need to make more money and be able to take care of myself first lol yes, I would teach them Chinese.
Of course~ nowadays, it's such an advantage to be multi-lingual. And I love chinese - it's a really nice language, even though it's one of the hardest to learn. Plus, there are SO MANY chinese out there... it's probably best that everyone learns it while they haven't dominated the world yet >.> haha, j/k.
I think it's important for your children to bond somewhat with their heritage. Especially so, if they are naturally born with that advantage, why not embrace your language and getting an extra skill to add to your resume. ________ Marijuana strain index
