Facing your insecurities - EP 2

from The Raising Bilinguals Podcast

Every bilingual parent has fears. Fear of passing on a bad accent. Fear of not being able to connect emotionally with your child in the other language. Fear of what the people around you think. In Episode 2 we name these fears out loud, talk about where they come from, and share what the research — and our own experience — says about facing them. We're not here to tell you the fears aren't real. We're here to help you keep going anyway. --- What We Cover - This week's wins and struggles from our home — including a big language moment with our toddler - The numbers: what percentage of children worldwide grow up in bilingual environments (and why that number doesn't tell the whole story) - Fear 1: My accent will confuse my child or hold them back - Fear 2: I can't connect emotionally with my child in this language - Fear 3: The people around me don't support what I'm doing - What to say when someone questions your bilingual journey — especially when your child is listening - The honest truth: we still have bad days too Join the community and get access to the episode guides with practical strategies by age (first 10 users get 1 month free, + first 50 users get special launch price): https://community.theraisingbilinguals.com/ Checkout the app: https://studio.com/howtospanishpodcast/raising-bilinguals Visit our webpage: https://www.theraisingbilinguals.com Our Spanish Project: https://www.howtospanishpodcast.com
