I'm the most patient and interesting. I insist they respect the other grandfather, and continue to learn Cambodian from him (without accepting what he teaches).

It's not complicated at all.

We start latin this summer with the 6 year old. I'm still dragging out books and figuring out tests.

Hebrew will be next summer. Greek to follow.

I'll be happy with them getting the alphabets and a few nouns and verbs.

They work on Spanish daily.

Hebrew, Latin, Greek, and Spanish?
Your not just some chef gone Galt.

This is good that they get classical education. My grandmother who went to school in the early 1900s and graduated 8th grade, was very very educated. I think my parents generation were taught corruption. My generation was the first experiment at dumbing down. In the 1990s I was asked to tutor children in math and was astonished, astonished - they don’t even memorize the multiplication tables. Public schooling should be the very last option available.
