RE: Will my children speak the same language I do?

in #parenting8 years ago

I moved to America when I was 3, and at the age of 4 I went to preschool. But at 4 I could only speek my native russian and it was very hard for me to communicate with the other children. But as time went by, I got better at english, but my russian started to dwindle. So my mom just banned english from the house. Only russian when we are home. I didnt like it, but it helped alot. Me and my sisters now speek in half russian half english all the time. The only problem that I have, is that Im really bad at translating. My brain just doesent see the point in doing so. May be its just me and I probably just need practice, but its really hard to.
