The things you think are universal childhood experiences - how school functions, what gets prioritized, what children are taught their worth comes from - are not universal. They're specific to American system designed to produce specific type of adult. When you've only experienced one educational system, you assume that's just how school works. But education philosophies vary dramatically by country, and what gets emphasized reveals what society values and needs from its future adults. American education system produces adults who: follow instructions without questioning why, equate busyness with value, feel guilty for resting, believe compliance is virtue, tie self-worth to productivity, accept that authority shouldn't be questioned. These aren't accidental outcomes. These are features of system designed to create workforce that won't push back on exploitation, won't demand better conditions, won't question whether grinding yourself into dust for corporation's profit is reasonable way to live. You don't teach actual life skills - financial literacy, critical thinking, practical problem-solving, emotional regulation, civic engagement beyond performative patriotism - because those create adults who question systems benefiting from their compliance. You teach memorization, obedience, standardized testing, pledge of allegiance, productivity as moral virtue - because those create adults who show up, do what they're told, don't make waves, and feel personally inadequate when system fails them. Other countries educate differently because they need different things from their populations. Countries with strong social safety nets teach: collaboration over competition, rest as necessary not weakness, worth inherent not earned, critical analysis of systems including critique of own country. American exceptionalism propaganda starts in kindergarten specifically so questioning it feels like betrayal by time you're adult. You're taught America is freest country on earth while having fewer labor protections, less social mobility, more restricted access to healthcare, education, housing than peer nations. But you can't see that clearly from inside system that's been telling you opposite your entire life. Distance and comparison reveal what was always presented as normal is actually specific choice about what kind of citizens to produce. Parents watching their kids learn that their value is their output, that rest is laziness, that questioning authority is disrespect, that America is best despite evidence otherwise - and feeling helpless to counteract messaging reinforced daily in classroom. You can't fix American education system from inside it. But you can remove your kids from it and give them education that teaches: thinking critically including about their own country, rest and play as essential not earned, worth that exists independent of productivity, skills that actually serve them in real world.

There are three things I learned about American indoctrination by raising kids outside of the United States. The first one is, that compliance is the curriculum. Schools are not teaching critical thinking like you would expect them to be. Because if they did, they would teach people about financial literacy when they were young, but they don't. They teach them skills like memorization, following directions, respecting authority figures. These are not skills that they're going to need in the everyday world that we have created for them. So I realized that the entire schooling system is not set up to create successful kids, unless they sort of succeed in spite of what is being taught to them. The second thing I've learned is that freedom propaganda starts from kindergarten. They are constantly trying to indoctrinate us that we only have freedom because of the men who fought for it. And yet we're not free. Americans are actually laughed at abroad about how little freedoms that we have. I remember sitting at this hotel one time in Austria, and this British couple next to us was reading an article about all of the freedoms that Brits have that the Americans do not. And it was so extensive, and they were just laughing at us, not knowing that we were next to them and that we were American. But the rest of the world has freedoms that Americans do not. And yet, with the pledge of allegiance and teaching kids that we owe our freedom to these men and women who fought, it really sets the tone for having to feel guilty about realizing that you're not free because we've been told that we are from the earliest ages. And the third thing that I've learned is that in America, productivity is intertwined with your worth. And that is not the case abroad. You have inherent worth outside of what you do to make megacorporations money, and that is learned. You are taught that your worth is tied to those megacorporations and what you're able to provide. And that's why America has such a depressed society. We have created a society where we never feel like we're doing enough, which is where the whole grind culture comes from, the rest of the world understands that you need rest, and you need to live your life, which does not include answering emails on every waking hour just because you have a device in your hand. So these things I've understood now more about the American indoctrination of students as they grow through the education system, I do not see that now that we have moved abroad. And that is so important because I do not want my kids to be whipped into these compliant robots where they just blindly are obedient to the system that America has created. I want them to think for themselves and have value in themselves inherently. And that is what I have given them by moving them abroad. If you want to get your kids out of that system, I can help you do that. I help match American families to visa programs around the world so that you can get out. There are 115 different countries that you can go relocate to that would allow your children to thrive without being indoctrinated. The link to work with me is in my bio and I can't wait to help you get out of the United States.

If picking a new country was as easy as comparing crime statistics and educational outcomes, than obviously that country would be overrun with expats. 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? ๐Ÿ†˜๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
