My son developed alarge vocabulary playingtogether with Danishchildren.“When our son began atschool, his teachers commentedon his large vocabulary.This was because he hadmostly played with Danishchildren. For even though Ispeak Danish to him, thereare words I don’t know butwhich he learns from otherchildren. We grown-ups canlearn from each other in thesame way. We have alwaysinvited Danish children andtheir parents into our home.We have discussed a greatmany topics and this hasproved educational for themand for us. A lot of prejudiceshave disappeared - on bothsides.”Gülay Ciftci emigratedfrom Turkey to Denmarkin 1977. She works as amunicipal integration andcash benefit consultant andis currently studying to be asocial worker.63
