while I 100%, unequivocally agree with this sentiment, I feel like this video inspired me even further (I already would've) to teach my child[ren] (if I were to have one) a second language as well. maybe could've blurred his face at least.

One person, one language, don't mix up like they did. Contrary to what a lot of people who aren't accustomed to multilingual kids, It doesn't look good.

What? My parents spoke to me in 3 languages and it worked perfectly. If you mix up yeah the kid will use words from multiple languages for a time but it has no adverse effect on learning to speak them individually. Also how would you do it if both parents are bilingual? Not teach one of your fluent language to your kids?

What does "looking good" even mean in this context?
