- 7How to raise a trilingual child when one language is rustyRaising a child with three languages becomes overwhelming when you are not fully fluent in one of them and have to look up words. Because children default to the dominant language as soon as they realize it is not strictly necessary, it is hard to get them to practice enough or respond without switching back.
