When our son arrives we plan to teach him Croatian. I am not as fluent as my DH but my parents and grantparents can help out in that department. Growing up my grandmother watched me and she doesnt speak any english so that is how I learned it and my parents spoke english to me. DH went to Croatia every summer from the age of i think 8 to 17. So I think it is possible for a child to pick up on a language just from the grandparents.
I'm croatian too....although I 'm not a parent...the way my sister taught my nephew is she spoke to him only in Croatian.... her DH too along with the rest of us... hes 2 1/2 now, and started picking up a lot of english from tv....by the time he is in school....he'll know both fluently i'm sure.
