When
you went to high school, you had an option of
whether or not you wanted to learn a foreign
language, but today, as more children are being
raised bilingual or multilingual (able to speak
more than two languages), you must be wondering,
"Should my children learn another
language?"
Yes, it is
extremely important that you and/or at least your
children learn a foreign language, as early as
possible, says Dr. Carolyn R. Durham, chair of the
foreign language department and associate
professor of Spanish and Portuguese at North
Carolina A&T State University.
"They should
begin in first grade or earlier," she says.
"They're at the stage in their lives when
they are more receptive to learning new
things."
The languages your
children study should not be limited because you
cannot predict which one will be more beneficial
to them. However, there are some languages that
are readily interchangeable.
Spanish
and French are truly international languages, says
Stanley B. Lemons, president and CEO of Stanley
Maria, Inc., a language services company in
Chicago. "If you have those under your belt,
you can travel almost anywhere in the world and
communicate with people," Lemons says.
