Their thai isn't good as swissgerman, english are the languages we speak at home, and they have had to learn german in school. Thai isn't a priority... Max.. I would never put my kids in thai school.. we tried k'garten for my daughter... was hard. My kids are swiss and we don't plan to stay in Thailand forever.. if one of us were thai.. it would be a diffrent story....probably put them in an international school.. or do what you are doing :-) Chris…My daughter12 can speak and understand some thai and my son10 can read it but says he doesn’t understand what he is reading.
