This is what it feels like to have bilingual parents that only teach you English.

Not to mention when that 'English' that you learn from them is a mix of non-existing, made-up words in three languages and bad pronunciations.. and voilà, you can only use that 'language' with your parents.

That's what it's like with parents that know another language but didn't have formal education so you speak to anyone in that language but you're crude and using slang for everything
