What language to teach my kids...

I was going to suggest the same thing Jim. Latin makes all the romance languages easy to learn. While spanish is practical, it's also very easy. While they're young and learning languages is easy, latin would be a good choice. It will make learning French, Spanish, Italian, and Portugese very easy.

Wow! I actually agree with Radar on something! My study of Latin made it a lot easier for me to learn Portiguese and Spanish. When I was in Mexico and my Spanish failed me, I'd try Latin. Boy did everyone have some good laughs off that one! Plus, I know all these cool Latin phrases like "Ad astra per asperum" and "Cave canem!"
