52) Raising Multilingual Children: Myths, Strategies, and Cultural Connection - with Eowyn

If you’ve ever felt discouraged by the "language gap" or worried that your child is losing their connection to your home culture, this episode is for you. Eowyn Crisfield returns to Dam Parenting to offer a warm, honest, and direct reminder: multilingualism is a marathon, not a sprint—and it is never too late to start or refocus.

We cut through common myths about language delays and assimilation pressures, focusing instead on the profound gift of cultural identity. Eowyn shares simple, effective strategies to keep your home language thriving while living in the Netherlands. Whether you’re struggling with the daily "hard work" of bilingualism or feeling the pressure to conform, we’re here to remind you that the research is clear—the benefits are worth every effort. Join Eva and Maren for this essential follow-up to episodes 25 and 30. You are not alone in this journey; let’s keep pushing forward together.
