Dear Tdrev123,
Thank you for taking your time to read and reply to my post.
My wife has actually chosen to give up her job, to raise our daughter, as a full time mother and she oversees our AuPair who is therefore not responsible for imparting morality but, exclusively, English language. However, we are still extreemely cautious of what values we expose our daughter to and, hence, who we invite to live in our household which, in turn, requires a large number of interviews only possible on this website.
My wife does not speak fluent English and I am not at home all day. Our goal is to empower our daughter with English skills, at native level, and this cannot be achieved at school or with afternoon classes. All scientific literature concord on the need for (a) necessity of use of a particular language, (b) sufficent exposure to it and (c) early start, to attain native level.
In Europe private businesses can NOT act motivated by religious discrimination. Regardless of the concern and the action, when a discriminatory motive underlies a behaviour, this can not only be sanctioned commercially and in a civil court but can also carry extremely serious criminal penalties. I understand that in the US individuals and companies are free to act as they prefer but in Europe they/we are not. Different countries. Different circuмstances.
Since I recorded the motives in the phone call, I believe that I may have a valid case.
Finally I appreciate that you hold different perspectives which I respect but by attacking my wife, Europeans' in general or me, personally, you are not going to make your advice more convincing. Especially since you proposed your views before knowing all the facts.
Perhaps you may want to consider that by using forceful language one does not always offend the recipient as much as himself because, by doing so, one exposes how one was raised and educated.
Regardless, I appreciate that you took your time to comment but I encourage you to continue doing so only if you have something useful to say otherwise it may be more productive for the thread and the community if you were to avoid non pertinent or non useful posts.
