Will my daughter loose her English?
I live 60 kilometers northern Paris. It's not to far from the capital but it could be called the coutryside. My hometown is about 6,500 inhabitants.
I would love my daughter had native English speakers friends to play with but it's pretty rare around here. When you're young, it's always better to learn while playing. It's effortless and you have fun.
She'll go to school for the first time this september and she will have a bunch of new friends to play with. Unfortunately she won't come across English speakers and have to cope with French.
My child has chosen English as first language so she is more advanced with it than French. I'm worried about she would loose the need to speak Engish at home because she'd understand that she don't really need it to play with other kids or chat with relatives or family.
While writing this post, I have to pay attention to the stove because I'm boiling noodles for lunch. It's a chinese-kind of noodles, really thin and long. I'm also cooking pees and carots with steaks.
Then I have to shower to go to work for my second shift. I'll come back home around 9:25 p.m

Just thought you would be interested, my husband's sister had the same worry for her daughter. She has been bringing the little girl up to speak English, but both parents are French.
The little girl is 6 now and even though she prefers to speak French, because all her friends are French speakers and all their family is French, she insists on speaking to me in English, and understands everything I say to her in English. She even translates my attempts at French back into English.
They keep her practise of the language up at home with movies, songs and books, plus obviously speaking to her in English. Kids are awesome at languages :D
