my kids are true bilinguals. We speak Polish and English at home and they go to a bilingual school. From birth this is what we decided to do. In our house language is important and it is free knowledge for our kids. Children can assimilate up to 6 languages before the age of 6. Anybody that doesn't speak with their child in their mother tongue is doing a real disservice to their children.

Zupełnie zgadzam się, Pip! As a bilingual myself I couldn't agree with you more-:) My mother insisted that my German-born nanny speak to me in German right from the outset. I therefore have no accent in either German or English, having learned to count at practically the same time in both languages. Polish I didn't start with until approx. thirty LOL

I presume that in your house, one of the spouses is a native English speaker to counterbalance your native Polish, yes? -:)
