>You mentioned that this cannot be said for a lot of EU countries. Turks born in EU do not have to learn German. Immigration within EU is free from language requirement too.

So Turks in Germany can have schools in Turkish for their children? Do you have a source for this?

>I do not even understand why do you think minorities not learning Serbian is impressive?

Because language rights are central for the survival of minority communities.

>Croatia and Kosovo both have schools that can use Serbian in their curriculum and no one is forcing Croatian on them.

Yeah, when they are not being stoned in Kosovo or have their Cyrillic signs smashed in Croatia.

Sure: https://www.schulentwicklung.nrw.de/materialdatenbank/materi...

That's the official lesson plan for non-German lessons in NRW; other German states have similar plans (teaching is devolved to the states in Germany). Notice that this is the plan used in the state-sponsored lessons; private schools are free to use their own plans.

Umm guys, education is about children's rights and it has to be mandatory so that your parents won't be able to override your rights even if they have something against their minority language or against the language majority.

1. The right to mother tongue: wherever in the world, the child must learn the mother tongue(s) of their parents to support the cognitive and psychological development.

2. The right to participate in the society as an equal: the child must learn the official language(s) of the society well enough to be able to understand and participate in the democracy, business, art etc.

On top of that, the bulk of the school curriculum can be in a yet another language, no problem, as long as these rights are ensured as well.
