We speak our mother tongue at home which is Gujrati,
My children went to school which was an English speaking medium,
So it was important they could write and speak English fluently,
So even at home I would insist they speak in English,
Now my children are married,
And have settled in England,
Afraid my grandchildren would forget their mother tongue,
I insist they speak Gujrati at home,
However, there is one consolation,
Religion lessons they attend are taught in our language.
