The idea that early education is lost later in life is completely nuts. You take an average kid and put them in a household where they speak five languages and they will learn all five languages easily just by listening. They don't lose the ability to speak those languages later in life.

That is all absolute BS.

In spite of how many languages you grew up with - and that includes your mother tongue - unless you actively work on keeping them current, either the easy way by having a need to use them daily, or by hard work in your chamber, you'll lose most of it, if not the roots, later.

I speak from experience and you obviously have no clue.
Your English is not bad though, top 80% on our board I'd say :)
