In this instance, I agree. The Vo kids did a fine thing. The entire speeches were in English and only the portion to their parents was in Vietnamese. One kid translated and the other didn't. courtesy would dictate a translation for the majority, but they're just kids and probably not the first or last that didn't think things through all of the way. I suspect not all adults do, either.
