When i marry and have kids, i really want to teach them three languages.
English - universal and my mother tongue.
German - my dads language.
The language of my future spouse; which i believe will be asian, as i have a bigger attraction to them more than to western women and i want to live and work in Asia for a while.
What are your views on this and when is it appropriate to introduce these languages? A good friend of mine suggested that i am demanding and i agreed but demanding for good reasons. I will obviously want to learn when to give way if there are learnng difficulties.
Two languages are fairly easy. Dad speaks his language and mom speaks her language and when mom and dad speak together, they speak in english. But in practice it doesnt seem effective and when i want to take my kids to english school, they may not know enough english.
What is your advice?
