Dear parents,
We all probably have some certain worries about how to maintain Vietnamese language and culture for our offsprings living abroad. Studies have shown that children should start learning Vietnamese as soon as they enter elementary schools because the more growth they are, the more difficult for them to learn Vietnamese. Children will not have interest to learn mother language when they are in high schools. Not all oversea children are excited to learn Vietnamese; however, with proper approaches, parents can inspire them to learn. Maintaining Vietnamese for children in families where both parents are Vietnamese is difficult; doing it for families where only one parent is Vietnamese or children having linguistic difficulty is even more challenging.
