>If the partner speaks the foreign language (even though it's non-natively), then you might even consider both of you speaking only the foreign language at home. The child is already guaranteed to learn the home country language Totally agree with this. Focus all your efforts on the foreign language, but don't sweat it, and don't make it an issue of stress if the kid refuses to respond in it. So long as it understands, and it will, you're on track for bilingualism.
