Mariano and Lucia
David (20 Feb 1998)
Raising little David Spanish/English using 99% OPOL (Very occasionally Daddy also tells him off in Spanish). Expecting a little brother/sister for David in July. Hoping learning German without an accent will be easier for them than for us... Seeking contact to other families in a similar situation, Spanish/German, Spanish/English/German, Spanish/English, or whatever, not necessarily in that order!

Isabelle (26 Jul 1997)
At the beginning, we have not been too serious about the bilingual education of our daughter. Isabel is 2 1/2 years old and speaks good German. Now (a little late) we start our bilingual education with the OPOL method.
