Hi Joan-
You recently wrote in part, "Children learn language from their parents--to
imply otherwise is simply wrong. " If this is universally the case then how do
you explain Rich-Harris's example of deaf parents who have children who can
hear?
Thanks,

questions.This is the second time he has responded to a post submitted on
behalf of a student and his response

Children learn language from their parents--to imply otherwise is simply
wrong. But children's brains are plastic enough that they can pick up a
second language easily and without an accent. I teach at a community
college with many non-native students and every class has at least 10
students
Sure, accents are only maintained if a person learns the second language
after the age of 12-14. So, as per you younger sibling, s/he was
exposed to and learned the Chicago accent while their brain was still
quite plastic. As with all statements about human behavior, there will
be exceptions.

Hi Julie-
I'd respond to the student by first directing him/her to Judith Rich-Harris's
"The Nurture Assumption" which addresses the issue by suggesting that language
isn't taught by parents, but by peers. I'd also suggest reading the classic
work by Werker &Tees: Werker, Janet F.; Tees, Richa

Hello TIPSters,
A student asked me why children don't always have the same accent as their
parents, particularly in the case of parents who are second-language learners.
A follow-up question from the class is why siblings who are raised together
