Raising Multilingual Children: How to Align Language Goals as a Couple with Mimi

from Dam Parenting · host Dam Parenting Podcast

What happens when two parents share a child, but don't share the same vision for their multilingual future? In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva is joined by Mimi from Growing up Multilingual⁠ to take a warm, honest, and direct look at the "hidden" side of bilingual parenting: parental alignment. We explore why even the most detailed language strategy will fail if parents are pulling in different directions.Mimi dives into the emotional territory of heritage languages and explains how our own childhood identities shape the way we parent today. We discuss why couples often overlook these crucial conversations early on and share five key questions every couple should ask to build a truly shared journey. Whether you're struggling with a partner who isn't "invested" or just want to strengthen your foundation, this episode offers the tools to turn your language plan into a source of connection rather than conflict.
