Frontmatter -- Acknowledgements -- Contents -- List of figures and charts -- List of symbols -- 1 Introduction -- 2 Family language policy -- 3 Child agency in family language policy -- 4 An ethnographic case study -- 5 A journey from being socialized to being the main socializing agent in family language policy -- 6 From parent facilitators to child manager -- 7 Metalinguistic, cultural awareness, and evolving identity -- 8 Creativity and literacy-driven language socialization -- 9 The contribution of this research -- Appendix 1: Videos taken between 2;0 and 5;10 -- Appendix 2: Transcription conventions in the example of two coded transcripts -- References -- Index
Summary: Past studies of family language socialization often focus on children’s verbal communication skills and are conducted from the parents’ perspective. This book describes a child’s mostly self-directed and near-simultaneous multilingual and multiliterate development from birth to age 8. The present findings thus emphasize the critical role of child agency, and they may redefine and expand on the traditional theoretical framework of family language policy.
