another thing-in school we had choice of languages we could study, my uncle was like dont pick urdu, whats the point? …so i asked him whats the point of picking french/spanish…he said cos one day u may go to france and spain and can speak it there..

right.

his daughters are now 15, 18 and 21. i asked him why he doesnt send his daughters to france/spain, since thats what they picked at school, and because hes a typcial paki man who doesnt send daughters alone anywhere even to the corner shop, didnt say anything…

I don’t see anything wrong in that. If you are a Pakistani, you will eventually learn Urdu in one way or another (unless you are a Mirpuri). But familiarising yourself with the language completely different from yours is a big bonus and it just makes you put that extra effort into learning. People who know a thing or two about Europe would tell you that French is a pretty useful language to learn. Besides, you don’t have to go to France or Spain to speak their national languages, most companies in the UK appreciate if their employees could speak European language.
