re: #673 Macha

I have to agree with you Ace. These kids do grow up bilingual and rarely have accents. I lived in a city that had a high rate of immigration, both legal and illegal. If there was an accent, it was more of a local homeboy accent that was learned from peers. They didn’t learn it at school or at home.

the language centers in the brains of pre-pubescent children are fascinating things…it’s a shame that it becomes less flexible so suddenly.
