It's not that it's a waste, its that we do it backwards. It should be taught at the youngest ages, immersion is the way. My son goes to a French immersion school and he's learning so much I almost can't believe it.
There is evidence that bilingual children test higher in math and science later on.

I was in a French immersion program when I was growing up, too. I am very surprised they still exist. I'm happy to that they still do, especially in Louisiana where speaking French is a big part of our culture.
ETA: Or I should say was a big part of our culture. Most of the French speakers I know have passed away.

I've got my 3-year-old watching narcos. He keeps saying plata o plumo when he wants something and he doesn't get it.
