Her views on language as a Grandma-to-be

Sally will be expecting her 1st grandchild at the end of this summer and when asked about her views on whether or not she should teach her Spanish she said she would like to teach her.  This is interesting because her views on teaching her own children Spanish were that if she did they would struggle in school.  Sally believes that the need for the use of both Spanish and English has increased greatly sine the time we were little and believes that being bilingual puts you at a higher advantage now of days.  She also thinks schools now are more supportive to both languages which is another reason why she thinks there would be no struggle in school.
