My 4 yearold goes to a preschool in the headstart program. Because of our countries immigration status she is being forced to learn spanish. She is still learning english and has trouble pronouncing some letters. Since starting preschool she has been having even more trouble with pronounciation and learning new words in the AMERICAN language. I honestly think she is getting confused. I pulled her from that preschool and placed her in a christian preschool that teaches the ‘OLD’ lessons. I have recieved alot of critisism from people who say I am only hurting my daughters future by not make this second language a part of her early learning. What do you think?
I am not a racist at all! My nephew is half american and half mexican. I am well aware that part of my family migrated here. I do not have an issue with people wnating to come here to make themselves a better life, I actually respect that. My problem is with forcing us to learn a language so that these people do not have to learn ours. If you want the AMERICAN dream then be an american. The preschool that I chose had nothing to do with it being christian. It is infact our YMCA, which also has spanish speaking children. Rather than teaching the english speaking kids spanish they are teaching the spanish speaking kids the american language. ENGLISH.
