Well we’re having triplets and because both of our families are Italian we feel we should raise them to be bilingual. Is this a bad idea? Would they get teased (we live in the UK)? Or would you say go for it?

Me and my husband usually talk in Italian at home and when we’re with family by the way…
Yes, we do tend to talk in Italian, but of course when we have English friends round we speak English.

The long run it will be saying yes maam to use two or more languages because in the long run it will help them even if someone makes fun of them.

My family raised me to speak the language and are very unhappy with their parents speak another language as well.
The language and are very unhappy with their parents speak another language and have friends whose parents for not raising them to be bilingual and are very unhappy with their parents.
