[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 182331, member: 8657"] Foreign people keep moving to this country expecting to be accommodated and we accommodate! Why????????? I have a friend who is a nurse in the newborn section of a hospital. Due to the demand, this hospital now treats welfare cases almost exclusively. And the rules for the foreign families are, don't walk into a patient's room and attempt to speak English, even though my friend and her co workers often hear the patients and their families conversing in very under- standable English. Nope, the doctors and nurses have to enter the room, go to the phone, put it on speaker and hook up with an interpreter. Now what do you suppose that costs? Several of my son's friends mothers are K-12 teachers. Many of them have started foregoing their vacations and on their own dime, take Spanish classes all summer so when it's time for parent/teacher conferences, they're not sitting across the desk from parents who can't speak a word of English. Half of my new phone books are printed in Spanish..... Something WRONG with this picture????? [/QUOTE]
