“”My kid is has been going to school in Austria for the past three years””
She must have learned to speak AUSTRIAN before she moved, right - LOL? What do Austrians think of foreigners getting free educations in their country? I know what people think of it here so it just seems odd.
You don’t need to speak Austrian.
German will do in a pinch.
She's a conservative, so she learned German instead.

First, it isn't free. Tuition at her school is €6,000 per year. The biggest thing is that it's not hyper-inflated to pay for sports teams getting degrees in football and basketball (rather than engineering or economics), non-working tenured professors, over-inflated staff, and social engineering experiments among the student body.
