Do too many languages confuse children?

Research shows that children can grow up with as many languages as possible. However, there is a common belief that children will become confused if they learn more than one language at once. This false belief could stop more children from growing up with more than one language. 

In the newly released book, “Watch Your Language, Mom!: A Guide to Multilingualism,”  stories and examples are shared to help guide for parents and educators on how to support multilingual children.
