I think it's a very useful skill to have your children grow up multilingual if they are interested. I have a friend who grew up multilingual in Japanese and English (she and her family are all Japanese, but she was raised in the United States) and now she is a professional Japanese to English translator. She said her parents used to make her sister and her give them a quarter any time they spoke English in the house and that's why she is multilingual now.
I don't have any children yet, but eventually I'd like to try to raise my children to be multilingual. :)
