Fair enough.

What about Switzerland?

I mean if the third country is Canada, U.S. or UK. Then yes. But that’s because anglophone countries “allow” you to call yourself by the nationality of the country just by growing up there, while many European countries don’t.

Right. I was just asking about this poster’s personal experience

Georgia is unexpected! Sounds like an adventure. Que chulo es un matrimonio español mexicano

Who is forcing you to go back to America? wtf?

How’s the language development going? / what are their strongest languages?

The EU is not a monolith. I think the advice would be to move back to their home country.

I was with you until your “PS” because 1) that’s cowardly and stupid and 2) Canadians are not popular these days anywyas

It’s all about exceptionalism

Couldn’t agree more!

Move to Madrid. Latinos are seamlessly integrated into society. De Madrid al cielo

The U.S. and Switzerland

This is cringe

We absolutely are constantly in wars. The difference is our government is the one that starts them and they never take place on our soil.

Why not instead spend winter and summer break in Spain? There are people who homeschool and live 6 months in one country and 6 months in the next, but you should know homeschooling isn’t legal in Spain. You’d have to always be registered as living in the UK and if you don’t have a Spanish passport you wouldn’t be able to stay there longer than 3 months.

LOL. Is this a serious post? Or are you joking? Panama and Costa Rica are great places to live, but the whole « running from a fascist dictator » is absurd beyond belief

I agree with your final paragraph, of course, and after hearing about how you’re raising them (linguistically capable in both languages and visiting both countries every year), I think we actually have a lot in common. I was just saying it is a shame when children lose their roots because of assimilation.

We are binational family living in CH as well and, besides the fact that identifying with a country is ultimately up to the child, I absolutely think it is emotionally and socially beneficial for immigrant children to identify with the parent’s home countries.

UK or US. Neither Canada nor Australia.
