Another amazing post 🥰. I honestly feel so bad for the generations of immigrants who had to abandon their own culture to integrate. Things like not speaking their native language with their kids is heartbreaking. Now I'm seeing a new wave of EU immigration between EU countries in my friend circles and there are so many multi cultural couples who speak their native language with their kids because it's seen as an advantage. I hope this can just be the norm no matter what country you immigrate to and from.

I wish my parents encouraged us to speak more when we were younger, but still leaning as an adult!!

That's the spirit! It's never too late. But it does get much harder to learn a language I feel as you get older. I'm currently learning Dutch and it's tough. So much respect for anyone who moved to a new country and was able to become fluent.
