But, it is not natural in the United States. Those young children whose primary fluency is in English are more apt to succeed against American bigotry. In order to succeed in this country, our children must first be taught in English. They must be taught how to speak English fluently and without an audible accent, a social accent, or a mental accent. Our Arab children CAN learn English first, and then learn Arabic as a second language.
Language is different than religion, for example.
We can keep our religion and still succeed in this country. We have seen this happen with other groups, including the Asian American immigrants. But the issue of language is different. It is a perception issue. How you speak and sound, and how you comprehend issues, stems from language.
