You're going to say no to writing a timeout code and risk your entire family going back to your country?
What if you have kids who were born here? You're now going to take them back to a place they don't know? Or are you going to let them go to foster care here?
How about if you've bought a house here? You're going to have just a few months to settle everything before you can go.
Why would anyone contemplate leaving their children behind in foster care? That seems an absurdly hyperbolic suggestion. People move countries for work and take their children with them all the time. I mean, if the country was Syria and you literally risk death, then I could understand, but people in that situation are refugees, not on work visas.
Perhaps I’m finding this hard to understand since I have no desire to live in the US whatsoever and have turned down several offers from companies that wanted me to move there. Nice place to visit, but I can think of dozens of places I would rather live.
The kid is a US citizen and doesn't know any language other than English. Depending on the home country that might be a huge huge obstacle for the kid.
I was once that kid who had to go back to Iran without knowing Persian. It was fucking terrible.
Yes, moving to a country is hard when you don’t speak the language. Can I ask, why did your Iranian parents not ensure you learned Persian if moving back was a possibility?
