yeah, i know a family whose kids are also filipinos but when they migrated here 3 yrs ago ... the kids (6-8y/o) find it difficult to adjust because of the language... a year after, they can't speak Filipino!
Now, the parents talk to them in English. Kids, can't understand them when they speak in Filipino or Bicol Dialect.
Quite a dilemma there... that is why i'm asking some your opinions re. this...
Thanks
