I try to get parents not to glamorize living abroad with kids. Unless you don’t care about education and you have a bottomless bank account, life will likely be very routine as a family living overseas. You will still need to decide what’s for dinner every night. Weekday mornings will still include sending your kids off to school. Getting your booty to the gym will be just as hard. Life abroad is not a permanent vacation. I want parents to have a realistic understanding of the reality of their choice to live internationally. When your kids look back at your choice to flee a whole country, they will get it. Just as you can look back at your ancestors and see why they left that country to settle in America, your kids will read their history books and understand. Imagine your future generations reading those history books and asking you what possessed you to stay in the United States. What would you tell them? Do you want to explain to your grandchildren that you were too scared, indecisive, or blind to keep them safe? 🆘🇺🇸 #creatorsearchinsights

and your kids are going to be brats no matter where you decide to live in this world. If you think that moving abroad is going to solve all your kids' behavioral problems, that is absolutely not the case. We have lived in amazing places and my kids still little snotts, but living abroad with kids does have a huge benefit and that is that you're going to send your kids to school and you are not going to be in fear of a school shooting that day. So far in 2025, the United States has had 8,100 kids in schools on the day of a school shooting. 8,000 kids are now traumatized because they have had a shooting in their school this year alone. That is not something that I was willing to live with. So living abroad, although it is difficult and there are certain behavioral challenges that are unique to living abroad, it is absolutely worth it to me to not have children at risk of a school shooting on any given day. Kids who live abroad learn a unique set of skills that is so heartwarming as a parent. I can't even tell you how proud I am to watch my kids out there doing these things like converting currency because they get their allowance in US dollars or communicating with people in other languages or making friendships with people that we never would have met had we not moved abroad to these international communities. Taking your kids to another country feels like nostalgia in action. It's where kids can be kids. It's exactly what people say they want from America. They want to go back to simpler times and all of that. That's not happening because there's too many guns in another country. It is simpler times and your kids can just be kids and you can breathe a sigh of relief and take that huge weight off of your shoulders because the stress and anxiety of raising children in the United States is off of you. You can relax and that is worth its weight in gold.

The best countries to move to are not one size fits all. Before you get your hopes up about any particular country, I suggest you take a step back. Determine your visa eligibility first.

The life you've built in America isn't the life you wanted. It's the life you could scrape together under constraints of: wages that don't cover basics, healthcare tied to employment, housing costs consuming half your income, constant financial stress, survival mode as default state. You didn't choose misery. You chose best option available within impossible constraints. But those constraints are geographic. Change geography, change constraints, change what's possible. The apartment you can barely afford in America becomes the nice place with breathing room abroad. The paycheck that barely covers survival in America becomes the income that allows saving abroad. The constant stress about one emergency destroying you financially becomes manageable situation where emergencies are expensive but not catastrophic. Same income. Same skills. Same person. Different location. Completely different life. You're not stuck because you lack resources. You're stuck because resources you have don't work in location you're in. Move those resources to location where they work better, and you're not stuck anymore. But moving requires: tolerating uncertainty about how things will work out, being uncomfortable while figuring out new systems, releasing familiar patterns even when familiar is miserable, trusting you can build better life from scratch. Most people choose familiar misery over unfamiliar uncertainty. Devil you know feels safer than devil you don't, even when devil you know is grinding you down. This is why people stay in: jobs they hate, relationships that don't work, locations that don't serve them, lives that feel like slow suffocation. Because at least they know how to survive current misery. Unknown is terrifying even when unknown might be better. But what if you're not choosing between misery and uncertainty? What if you're choosing between: familiar misery that will continue indefinitely, or temporary uncertainty that leads to actually building life you want? When you're in survival mode, you're making choices based on: what's cheapest, what's fastest, what gets you through next month, what keeps crisis at bay. Not what you actually want. What you can manage given constraints. Those choices compound into life that doesn't reflect your preferences. Reflects what you could piece together while drowning. But when you move somewhere your income works better, you're not in survival mode anymore. You have breathing room to choose based on: what you actually want, what serves your family, what creates life you're proud of. That's not small difference. That's the difference between life you're enduring and life you're choosing. Living in America isn't default you're stuck with. It's choice you're making every day by not choosing differently. And choosing differently is available to you. Link in bio for people ready to choose. What would you choose if survival wasn't consuming all your energy? 🆘🇺🇸
