Living in Puerto Rico, it is just the natural assumption that you speak Spanish. The kids especially are expected to speak Spanish because they LOOK Puerto Rican.
Often, people will just start speaking to them, expecting them to respond. They would just stare with this blank look on their faces. We told them they had to let people know that they didn't speak Spanish, otherwise, they would think they were just rude, bratty kids!
Tonight, when at the mall, a sales person was speaking to La Loquita. She responded to him in inglés, but she understood him! Woohoo!
Papa Loco and I have declared domingo/Sunday Spanish only days. This is already easy to implement when we go to church all in Spanish. Now for Papa and I not to give in!!
Mira mis nenes!! Son grande!! No me gusta!!!!!!!
