R2I Dilemma - Convince others in family!

Girls parents are besides the point. I feel if we are so concerned about our parents, and that wife should be willing to help us in that respect, we should extend all help possible to wife's parents too. Caring for parents is a part of reasoning to go back to India. Its not the only thing. I feel I ...

Narrow down the problem! ??

R2I Dilemma - Convince others in family!

The most important part is open discussion. I know, and hope, in due course I might be able to convince her. The reasons to R2I are many: aging parents is one of them. Although, living separately is a good option. Even in a different city, initially, so that we can get time to ourselves. I guess for ...

R2I Dilemma - Convince others in family!

I do not think the question even arises of leaving the wife ! Thats no way to solve anything... I am still hopeful, things will change. But if they do not, I guess ultimatum might work. I cannot see myself growing old in this country, leaving my aging parents to fend on their own. If in due course ...
