Staying informed is important in today's world, no matter what the topic of interest. Since our children and families go through tremendous changes and developments each day, week, month and year, it is important to stay up-to-date so that we can make the best decisions for our families.

Staying informed is more than just accepting the latest trend or following the advice of one expert. It is about gathering as much information, knowledge and advice, spreading it out across your diningroom table and then creating the plan from all the pieces that works best for you and your family.

Don't forget that part of the reason we stay informed is because even our best thought-out, most heart-felt decisions and intentions sometimes fall flat on their faces. Without having a pool of knowledge to dip into, we are left empty handed and find ourselves struggling to continue on our path of raising our children bilingually and biculturally. It is very easy to feel that what we are doing is useless, meaningless and too much of an effort.

When those times come, visit our site again and find the pages or the Once A Day that inspire, excite, motivate or reassure you the most. Then make yourself a warm tea, sit back and remind yourself that you ARE making a difference in both your family's lives as well as the world.

And, of course, always feel free to email us: info@biculturalfamily.org.
