You should speak English at home.""Mama, then you won't understand us!" Lucia replied."I'll understand what you say, but speaking English is too hard for me.""No. I want Alvaro to know his culture. He learns English at the child care center. Besides, everyone around here speaks Spanish." Lucia gestured, referring to their neighbors.Two years later, Lucia enrolled Alvaro in a preschool near her workplace.
