Raising Bilingual Kids Carnival

Here we are again, just in the nick of time - another edition of the Blogging on Bilingualism Carnival has gone live. This time over at Multilingual Mama - head on over and check it out. You will find entries by a few of the usual suspects, but also a bunch of new contributors. Hopefully you'll find something that inspires you :)


Before you go, please see if you can help us deal with the latest uprising of Punk 1's stubborn side - I really am looking for opinions! My friend whose three year old daughter is similarly stubborn (she just spent 6 whole weeks in Germany telling everyone "I speak English only!!!!!", something that is fairly similar to how Punk 1 behaved when we were there when she was three herself) has already resigned himself to not ever pushing his daughter with reading and writing. I think it's because he is more confident that she will indeed pick up reading and writing German because both him and his wife are German, speak nothing but German at home, and travel to Germany a lot - but in some ways I admire his confidence that it'll all work out.

I'm just not there yet.

Thanks, for anything you might have to add!
