I am looking to start a group for similarly situated families who want an accepting social outlet for their children as well as personal support for themselves. 2011 update - We are currently a group of a few moms/families trying to support our …

We want to share what we know about raising bilingual kids and helping families bring easy, useful language into the day-to-day routine. With my own kids, I found it extremely helpful (and fun!) to expose them to language at play dates with other families who shared this interest. I found a mom whom I really enjoyed via Meetup.

Today, TeenLife Media features more than 4500 local, national and international listings, including summer program …
