I hold a high degree of respect for those who are brave enough to change a city, a country, a continent, to get started from scratch in another place. Definetely not easy. Our ego will pull off any mental trick to get us off the hook. It is the biggest challenge to confront and change it's nasty ways.

I am 100% for giving children independence mindset. They have to be able to fly and you to not worry if they lose a feather or even a whole wing. A job well done from the get go is the success policy of a good education. For this, the choice of the right partner matters. The choice of the parent's mindset matters. It is strategy at its best to educate and prepare a child for life and also giving them the freedom they need and deserve. A child not willing to set themselves free is a sign of unfortunate parental failure of some sorts. Life is not a walk in the park and strong independent people will thrive. I am sure your daughter will be one of them.She is lucky.
