| Description | In my paper I pay attention to options concerning multilingualism support in children. I focus on various factors (such as age, context of acquisition and emotions) and their impact not only on language acquisition but also its maintenance and language attrition. I introduce happylingual approach (Yates and Terraschke, 2013) and I stress the importance of percieving and respecting the uniqueness of the linguistic situations of multilinguals. |
