Re: Which language family does your father's mother tongue belong to?
My father's native language is English but HIS father's native language is Spanish. Checked the English box for accuracy though. My father wasn't taught Spanish as a child either (nor even as an adult) because my grandfather wanted to leave his impoverished Mexican-American childhood behind him and the language was a big part of that for him. So just English for my dad and his siblings.
