N TESOL professionals are increasingly called on to defend the maintenance of heritage languages and to recognize the issues associated with language loss (e.g., Kouritzin, 2000). Research findings such as those indicating that the earlier Spanish-speaking Mexican immigrants began learning English, the lower their levels of proficiency in Spanish (Hakuta & D'Andrea, 1992) prompt questions about the factors affecting language loss and maintenance. However, a very limited research base exists concerning personal factors that may influence an individual child to develop or neglect his or her heritage language. This report presents some initial data concerning one such factor-birth order, a child's place relative to other children in a family
