Grandma: I didn't raise a kid so rude. ("Mal educado" can be translated in many ways but it literally means poorly educated. In context it's more of "Rude, inconsiderate.")

Dad: Everyone ready? We're going to the hotel to drop off our luggage.

Grandmother talks to you in third person and openly bitches about you in front of you. It's nice to see you too!

How I would like to respond: Abuela, tu no lo criaste, lo criaron sus padres. So go tell *them* that. (Would I get slapped for this: hard or very hard?) Also: I think hotel is masculine - el hotel.

In my experience it's much more common for someone to speak about you in 3rd person when you're getting bawled out in Spanish (than in English). Parents/grandparents are Cuban-American. :) It's an interesting observation that I've never considered before.

How do you decide what speech to write in English and what to leave as Spanish? For a while I thought it was just phrases that didn’t have a perfect English equivalent and some cursing. Then sometimes it just seems like inconsequential dialogue, and other times I’m not sure why it’s in Spanish. Is it for the sake of immersion? Or is it more personal reasons? Or something else? Just curious!

Definitely stuff that doesn't have quite the same English translation and some of the cursing (cause it's funnier in Spanish I dunno why). Other than that, it usually just depends on who's speaking. If they are older and/or side characters, they're more likely to speak Spanish since growing up, I was used to all adults around me speaking Spanish while those closer to my age spoke English.
