for fucks sake I was taught English and French on my kindergarden, elementary ,junior and high school and I´m perfectly normal. There´s lots of benefits for yoy beeing bilingual.
I wish my family put me in to mandarin Chinese. :( I want to be a translator for big business corporations and travel the world. Maybe with learning Korean and fully learning Japanese I can wedge myself in to a world market and not just the west. ^^
Btw... My iPod has 8 languages on it... Which also helps keep up with what I've learned. ^^ Its always a challenge. I love it.~
Learning languages early on made appreciate languages and I've fallen in love with language. When I was 15 I started learning Japanese and now at 18 I started learning Korean. My friend Lookpla taught me some Thai. It's such an awesome language. Nothings like it. I love language.
Teach your kids as many as you can!!!

I kept up with German in high school since my patents got divorced and German left the house when I was 9 years old.. But I even went on to be an exchange student in Germany, which was awesome btw. Romanian though, I speak loads of, and tons of romanglish going on... but oh well. ^^
My maternal grandmother is here from Romanian and she doesn't know English so only Romanian with her, which has been nice.

I grew up in a tri-lingual household, and it was never really hard. I learned German from my dad and Romanian from my mother, and at school English. When I came home I'd speak German and English with dad, while speaking Romanian and English with my mom. With my siblings we'd all speak all three with each other. My mother also knew French but never taught us.. Kinda wish she would've though. :)

Great video. It's unfortunate that many people are unaware of the many benefits of learning more than one language - benefits for the child as well as benefits for society. See my review of the book "Raising a Bilingual Child" for a more detailed discussion of this important topic.
If Quebec spoke English just like the rest of Canada, and people don't feel anything upset or uncomfortable about it. Non of this justification or excuses is necessary. There are so many things beneficial and this video suggest one of the million ways to achieve good health. I still don't understand why residents of Quebec have difficulty speaking English freely and happily, and do whatever they want with the time left.
I have to ask though, if you choose English as the childs main language and lets say for example Michif, which is not wildly know outside of the family because it is Cree and Parisian French, will that have detrimental effects for them if they want to further branch out? Does choosing a language that is not common have any good or bad effects in general?
@Doctorwithnoname222 When you take your child to school and they tell you that your child is going to be learning Canadian French and they allready know Michif, should you pull the child from that class or make your child learn a third language?
Just curios what your awnsers would be in this specific case.

People can justify anything.
