The only ones who didn’t have an accent at all are the ones who weren’t taught their parent’s language - usually because their parents didn’t want them to have an accent, or because that was the language they spoke in when they didn’t want the kids to understand what they were saying. :)

Heh. We knew a few other Americans in Brussels at the time, and occasionally when we kids would play in a larger group, an argument would break out in English and the Belgian kids would just stare at us…funny stuff;)
