That's rather sad, actually.
Making sure your offspring has it easier to get on is one thing, completely ignoring their heritage something completely different. A couple of years ago, the last person to actually speak Mansk (the original language of the Isle of Man) died and with him the language as nobody else bothered to keep it alive. Other minority languages around the world will follow and then in the next couple of centuries, the whole world will speak only one language (if it still exists then).
