My son, now 10, had some issues in school last year and upon the school's insistence, we went for an evaluation. The doctor (he was great btw) assessed him to be mildly autistic, but also said that since he did not have communication issues or issues with mingling, he would do well if the ...

If your kids were to ask you that question, explain your (and wife's) feelings and perspective to your children. They will understand. R2I for the sake of parents will work if your mind is set that way, i.e., if you feel that you will not be at peace after 20-30 years, assuming that you continued to ...

[QUOTE=HeySar;474930] TW is now in two minds about R2I and exposing Luv-Kush to such a decadent environment. Wifey in two minds is a sticky situation. Any suggestions for us ? :([/QUOTE] Uh...what is the other choice you have? The country that you want to R2I from (the US?)? And is the other choice ...

I have some free advice for you. "Planning" for a kid is not as easy as you think. You may have everything laid out for you in terms of career and finances but the kid might just refuse to come at that point.

1. Did you let your wife know before getting married that you want to eventually settle in India and be with your parents? Did your wife let you know that she wants to stay in the UK forever? 2.

Tough one that. The first thing that struck me after reading your post is that this is a decision you have to take not only with your mind but with your heart as well. Your husband is probably worried that something might happen to his mother while you are here and might want to stay close to her in ...

[QUOTE=rimjhim;422705]One needs to put conscious effort and energy to make things work, and sometimes it may not even be worth if either of sides do not have any kind of genuine affection for other. But losing genuine affection for the sake of winning the argument in my opinion is not a good deal ...

[QUOTE=Homebound;422326]We still find ourselves discussing the nuances of careers with my parents despite complete awareness that their knowledge of my field is minimal. [/QUOTE] This is what I mentioned-you have grown up this way and feel at home doing this with your parents. I wonder how your ...

That would be some joint family! It depends on whose family it is going to be. Your wife is more likely to have issues with returning to your joint (extended) family and you are more likely to have issues if you are going to be staying with her family. The pros as I see it are: 1. A good support ...

Have you and wife discussed with kids about this? What do they have to say? If the situation were reversed, i.e., the OP wanted to start a business in India and the working wife wanted to LIA, what would your take be on this? Would the wife be thrown into the "women rarely want to R2I" category or ...
