Which Language Should We Speak at Home? Making a Family Language Plan, with Mimi

Raising kids with multiple languages is a beautiful goal, but how do we move from constant pressure to purposeful choice? In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva is joined by Mimi from Growing Multilingual for a warm, honest, and direct exploration of the emotional side of language. We dive deep into why your personal "why" is the most important part of your language plan and how to stay aligned with your partner—or navigate co-parenting and solo parenting after a major life shift.We move beyond the "how-to" to focus on the "who": How do we create emotional safety for children navigating multiple identities? Mimi shares practical, sustainable strategies for building a family language plan that fits your real life, not an idealized version of it. Whether you’re balancing Dutch, your mother tongue, and a third language, this conversation offers the clarity and encouragement you need to lead your family’s linguistic journey with peace and purpose.
