Raising bilingual kids

Interesting Japan Times article on raising bilingual kids. The keys are, according to the author:

  • First and foremost, raising bilingual children requires "time... monumental effort and perseverance on the part of both parents; and... piles of money"
  • Also beneficial are supportive relatives who can host the kids over summer holidays etc.
  • And one parent having a fairly mobile job will make it easier to move between countries.

Seems pretty doable!
