The more the better!!!!

I enjoyed the readings and the different viewpoints shared on different cultures learning our language. I think that those who emigrate from another country to the U.S. should strive to learn English, not because English is better or we want to wipe out someones culture, but because to survive in the workforce or in other words to work your way up the ladder you need to be able to communicate in english. If you can speak english and you still want to retain or teach your children your native language, more power to you. Knowing more than one language can be very beneficial also in our lives. Friendships can easily be made and bridges built which would not have happened if it were not for knowing a different language. The more the merrier as long as you can speak English.
