My kids use to make all these plans to leave Germany, but they're now adults and actually looking around and are like nevermind.

Every place else is similar or worse, and they'd be foreigners there and away from their family.

Yes i agree to all of it. For example i had a dutch friend, there are many similarities in Holland and Germany, that she spent some time in prison for some activism. When she told me how it was in prison, i was like, what? Is this a hotel? 😃. I can tell you more good things that Germany has and maybe Germans don't appreciate as much as they should because they take them for granted. But Germany lacks other things.

So the conclusion is, where do you feel comfortable? Stay there if you can...

Also, where do you have friends and family? Where do you understand the culture and legal and tax system? Where are you a citizen?

That's often the best place. Home-court advantage is real.

I didn't read the whole thread but I do agree with your statement here my friend. What you knowand can work with is easier tonavigate than the unknown as an outsider

We actually have the problem of people coming here illegally and committing felonies, because they prefer German incarceration to deportation.
