r2i forum

We recently r2aed and shipped our household goods back to the US. While unpacking, we noticed a carry-on bag that is no ours. The shipping agent in India did not know who it belonged to, and neither does it have any address or name on it. There are a lot of medals of a small boy from Indus ...

OP, why dont you put it across to your wife that you will r2i as soon as you find a suitable job and would like for her to r2i with the kids when the next academic year begins. Help her set up her life in India and give her some space in India so she can understand real issues of "LII". The real ...

OP, I think you made the right decision. There are many parents who are wondering if they were right in putting their children through the stress of r2i'ing for their own compulsions (may be family, job, visa, etc) including us whose children in early-late elementary school.

I would say get lots of pepper spray and a few baseball bats. We keep one in our car. It is hard to deal with auto drivers and other miscreantsand; you would want to be able to defend yourself if ever you got into a situation.

My spouse tried to ask our kids why they are not giving back the abuses and pat came the reply, "but it is wrong to use those words and I don't want to do it". How can you encourage your child to use abusive lang? I am at a loss. Layman: My children are around the same age as yours and both of them ...

I used to be of the opinion before we r2i'ed that we can change India for the better if we stood up for ourselves and are not afraid to speak up. Rude awakening had to happen some day and here is how it happened: The person living above us used to throw dirty water into our terrace and this would ...

Many of us take our kids for granted- especially if we r2i when they are young- expecting them to slip right into the new environment. Most of us realize that they have their own little struggles after we see them trying hard to fit in. My children have had issues with their peers in the apt complex ...

Can anyone refer me to good tutors for keyboard and bollywood dancing in Jayanagar.

Thanks!
