Fascinating (especially Myth #5: Children are really good at learning languages, adults are not):

Yes, that was an interesting article. Myth #5 seems to me to be something we “make true” so we have an excuse! I also think it’s interesting how people need to justify their position instead of considering another point of view. Of course that isn’t exclusive to language learning!
