Jessica Alba tells Latina Magazine she plans to speak only Spanish to her baby because she always regretted not learning it from her grandparents as a child and eventually they’ll learn English at school anyway. The problem is Jessica doesn’t know how to speak Spanish. A conundrum indeed. Alba’s father never spoke Spanish to her and her brother because he wanted them to become model Americans.
“I wish to God that my dad spoke Spanish to my brother and me, but he didn’t grow up with it.”
“Hopefully I can pick it up because I want my kids to speak Spanish. I don’t even want them to speak English for maybe the first two to three years, until pre-school.
“We’re in the United States so they’re going to learn it anyway.”
If this kid is growing up in SoCal, it’ll be impossible for it to not pick up Spanish or learn it in school. I’m not even originally from SoCal, yet they made me take Spanish for 7 years. Which, in retrospect, is pretty cool since now I can call Jessica’s boyfriend, Cash Warren, a pinche cabron while smiling and they’ll think I’m telling them how beautiful their baby will be.
IF THAT RACIST WANTS HER CHILDREN TO SPEAK ONLY SPANISH, SHE NEEDS TO MOVE THEM TO MEXICO! WE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ARE PROUD OF OUR HERITAGE, AND ENGLISH IS OUR LEGITIMATE LANGUAGE!!
God, she’s dumb. Babies learn language from being talked to constantly and being exposed to a wide variety of words and phrasings. If she isn’t already fairly fluent in Spanish, all she’s going to do is hinder the baby’s language development because it’s only going to hear a few words and phrases directed at it. She might as well stick it in a box, it would be less confusing than why when baby goes googoogaga, Mommy just looks puzzled and constipated because she can’t translate googoogaga in her head.
She’s retarded.
That’s stupid. My mum’s English and my father Spanish-note to some up there.There ARE are other countries besides Mexico which speak Spanish, such as Spain, Europe-. My mum spoke to me in English-and Spanish-and my dad in Spanish. That’s the best option to make your children bilingual. And how exactly was she planning on alienating her children from society?
Raina you’re retarded
