About this listen
Is OPOL — One Parent, One Language — really the “gold standard” for raising bilingual kids, or just another parenting myth that sounds good on paper?
In this episode, Eva sits down with linguist and multilingual mom Mimi from Growing Up Multilingual to unpack where OPOL came from, why it’s been trusted for over a century, and what actually happens when real families try it in daily life.
If you’ve ever worried about “doing it wrong,” this conversation will help you breathe easier — because your language plan isn’t fixed, it’s a living document.
Hit follow on Damn Parenting for new episodes every Wednesday — and share this one with a parent who needs to hear that “perfect bilingualism” doesn’t exist, but connection always does.
