My sister is taking spanish just to be with her friends?

Question

I don't know what to do about this, but that's her reason to take spanish for school.

The other one is that she should take French because that's our family's precedent...

Should I be okay with her taking spanish?

Answer 1

maybe she will learn both

Answer 2

Spanish will prove to be more useful.  And you should let her make her own choices, right?

That she's taking it to be with her friends shouldn't be a problem unless they keep each other from learning.  In fact, being with friends in class is a good way to have fun while you learn, which can help you learn more effectively.

Answer 3

Maybe I'm not understanding the question but what is wrong with taking Spanish??  I think it's wonderful, for whatever reason, that she is learning another language!  If she also takes French, she'll be that much better off...lots of added career opportunities!

I think you should DEFINATELY be ok with her taking Spanish!

Answer 4

Sure. Spanish will probably be more useful in everyday life anyways.
