Oh, and Cincy's Mom, a three year old speaking only Spanish in Ohio who has two English speaking parents is NOT a problem. That kid is going to pick up English no matter what. I mainly spoke Spanish until I was five, and I started and completed kindergarten with no problems. The language abilities of children are truly amazing.
I don't think it is a problem for the child. I just think that since my co-worker is the only member of her side of the family that speaks Spanish, they should do more to teach their child to be bi-lingual. I understand they want to teach him his father's culture and that is great, but it should go both ways, and he should learn his mother's as well.

And I have to admit I judge this particular person harshly for things that do not belong in this thread. Just because I don't agree with her choices views and opinions doesn't mean they are wrong.
