Lot of good information on upcoming things that I have no experience on guys, thx. Obviously I will want to play a major role in helping his early education like my mother did with me as a young child. I think that is one of the major impacts you can have as a parent!
As I thought just the early exposure would be enough for small talk but like some say once a child reaches a certain age teaching will become key to fluency.
@voltaire I will look into that book today, thx for recommending :)
Online hearsay is not always just that though, sometimes personal experience comes through.
A small question (to any experienced) I have in my mind with my Chinese wife due to give birth in about 4 or so weeks is this....
With me (obviously) and my Chinese wife both speaking English at home but everyone else around us speaking Chinese (family, friends etc) will the child learn both languages easy enough or will it just be the home language that stands out? We see family most days for meals so plenty of Chinese language around.
Any kind of thoughts on this would be appreciated :)
Watched it and was amazed at how high these girls basic expectations were! Maybe if this vid was done in Kunming (probably bigger city made in) then the expectations would probably be lower. Couple of the guys gave me a good laugh with their thoughts on Chinese women.
@dolphin One's man's pleasure is another's pain, I personally dig the so called 'stinky' tofu. Always happy to see it ordered and the smell is hardly of the level you claim it to be, the smell equals good food arrival to me ;o)
It's on the rise and being legalised in certain countries because some people are starting to see it's not quite deserving of the label it got back in the day! Obviously not all people as your tone seems instantly against it's use ;o) It's something that shouldn't be compared to the likes of opium based narcotics and doesn't lead to things like HIV/AIDS infections so shouldn't be in the same discussion.

Always wondered how much these people make, knew it would be low but still thought it'd be a little higher than that :(
Makes that Starbucks coffee feel even more of a waste of money than ever before and it's always felt like a waste!
Been here several times lately and every time I've enjoyed my meal. Don't know why some others have said it was pricey, the price has always seemed fair to me :)

Drugs come in all guises, I know the drugs I take for my personal issue are very welcome, so some drugs are definitely better than others.
