I am from Germany. I have seen this so often, that children, who grow up speaking there ethnic language at home, tend to speak better German than children who grew up having parents, which spoke broken German or mixing 2 languages with there children. If children are proficient in at least one language, they can adapt the principles of this language to the countries official language, which they will have to learn in kindergarten / school anyway. Furthermore, the way we speak, determines the way we think. Our mother tongue affects the way we think. If a child is brought up with aint being able to speak any language properly at all. Do you think these children will perform well in subjects like math ect?

That is a tragedy. Before the year 2000, bilingual education was not encouraged in the US.
TEACHERS ARE NOBODY TO TELL PARENTS WHAT LANGUAGE THEY CHOOSE TO SPEAK AT HOME.
It's not telling, it's informing the benefits.
