Thread: What Hispanic Children Are Taught

I was talking to 2 people by the pool and there was a Hispanic boy and a woman in the pool. The boy spoke spanish to her and she replied in English. He expected her to speak spanish to him. This is a 7 or 8 year old boy. The woman replied in the United States they speak English and he should speak it and his relatives should learn the language. He didn't like that at all. The woman went on to say she was Canadian and in Canada they speak English as well and named other countries such as England, Ireland, Scotland, Australia and some Caribbean countries as well. Then went on to explain why English was an important language to know. I think it was awesome of this Canadian woman who is here on vacation. She is definitely from English speaking Canada,

Thanks for this post Swatchick,what a great lady-that Canadian-for standing up for all of us.

The magic words are "they expect"

The arrogance and victim mentality is beyond belief
