Life / Polish Kids - Polish speaking? Bilingual? only English? [56]

This is what bothers me recently, as I dont have kids myself but hear from my friends: Polish kids who start school stop speaking Polish, don't want speak Polish, mix languages and generally are confused. Have you observed this with yours? Did you send your kids to Polish schools (Saturday school or classes, not mainstream I mean)

We started meetings for kids in Bristol so that they would have more contact with other Polish speaking kids. What's your experience?

Life / Polish Kids - Polish speaking? Bilingual? only English? [56]

I work with adults who would like to speak Polish (private tutor) if you are interested :) .
Still, I think there are kids all over UK who will loose the ability, sooner or later, especially if one of the parents is not Polish, it must be very difficult to rise kid to be bilingual

News / Tinky Winky from tellytubbies outed in Poland [145]

it is a bit of a typical Polish problem :) when government cannot help the real one, they are creating another just to let people chat about it :)

a bit of a conspiracy theory (by the way - this theory, the conspiracy theory is also from USA...)

Real Estate / buying for rent vs Polish way of living [4]

What is your oppinion? Is it really worth buying flats in Poland for rent, knowing that Poles are not the most flexible nation - usually they live with parents till they finish education, which may last till they are 25, then they can't afford buying/renting so they go abroad :) to earn money.

If not they take morgage but won't spend too much on renting,
If they have to rent - this most often will be students looking for cheap flats
Who will rent the most expensive ones, on offer from developers?

UK, Ireland / 700 are arriving every day from Eastern Europe into Britain [50]

the truth is in the middle, who wants to integrate - will, who likes being in their own circle won't. But lets face it: Poles do not live and do not create ghettos,

after a while we move out to seperate accommodation, how long can you live sharing? who wants just to earn and go - will not integrate as this is not a priority, who wants to live here - will
