When a parent's primary/preferred language differs from their child(ren)'s primary/preferred language, who should have the most "obligation" to learn more of the other's preferred language?

Yeah! It’s use it or lose it. Kids should definitely learn all the languages they can. Practicing a non-primary language serves them better when they’re young, that way it’s ingrained so they won’t lose it growing up. My parents learned English in middle age and it amazes me how they still suck at it lol.
