Thank you for this AMA! I have a 3 year old who only recently started speaking in 5 word sentences (sometimes and not always comprehensible). I speak Chinese, Dutch and English, the latter two more fluently than the first. I haven't really focused on teaching her Chinese and now she's speaking mostly Dutch (national language) and some English (too much screen time). Is it too late to reintroduce Chinese? Is it important that I become more fluent in order to teach her? Should I speak to her exclusively in one language? How does multilingualism in young children work?

Very helpful, thanks! And you have given me renewed energy to speak more Chinese to her :-)
