    Another advantage of dating a European girl. They are going to bars at age 15-19. So by the time they are 20.....they are actually sitting at home plotting how they will raise their children
    Kind of like Amy Winehouse.

    What 20 year old girl is sitting at home plotting how she's gonna raise her kids? Are you insane?

    You are allow to have fun between your teens and your 20s. That's all part of growing up.

    Also, not all women wish to have children. That doesn't make them unintelligent, ugly or irresponsible.

    You dont sound like you have a clue of half the things you say, specially when it comes to women.
    That guy actually has a point. I'm a woman or girl if you prefer, I'm 20, and I'm already thinking very seriously about how I want to raise my children. So maybe I'm an exception?

    My biggest problem at the moment is that although men will come up to me I don't find very many who are interested in getting to know me as a person. That and not a lot of them share my values.

    Which, btw, is actually a large part of the reason why I'd like to leave North America. I admire the people who can raise their children here but I want my kids to have better opportunities in life.

    I'd agree with you that there's exceptions. I've met some party types who would make good moms and I've also met quite a few women I admire who don't want to have kids.

    That said, there's a lot of truth to what he's saying I'd say.

    Who's KEG?

    I'm not even trolling honestly. I know I should be more interested in parties and stuff but that's not who I am.

    I wasn't born in North America so maybe that's where the disconnect is coming from?

    You have over 200 posts and you dont know who NewCastleKEG is? Now I'm even more suspect of you.

    He also wants to leave here at some point, as he's made it clear. That's why I said what I said on my last post. lol

    Oh. I've spent most of my time in the Spurs forum and then I got bored and came down here. I might have seen that poster at some point but I don't particularly remember him (though I will go look him up now)

    Nah. For me it's more about going somewhere I love than leaving something I hate -which I'm guessing KEG is trying to do.

    Edit: I'm not guessing anymore. I think he just doesn't like it in America.

    Please tell what country you think will afford your children better opportunities in life. America is still the only country in the world where anyone has a chance to achieve great things regardless of race, nationality, creed, etc.

    I don't disagree. In terms of quality of life America is second to none if you have money.

    But to me, there's more to living and I'd want them to experience people, life, and culture. I'd want them to grow up more well rounded than what I'm seeing in people here. Which is what I'm getting at I guess.

    There's a few places in Europe, countries like Brazil, South Africa, etc that would be more closely aligned with what I'm looking for. Thanks to the Internet and distance classes I don't feel like they'd be missing out on an education if I wasn't happy with the schools in my area.

    Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of good things about America and Canada and I would definitely recommend them to other people. It's just for me, personally, I don't think it's not going to work and it's not a place where I'd be want to raise a family.

    I'm still young though so my opinion might change between now and then.

    I wouldn't want to raise my kids in Brazil. That place is a mess.

    That was just an example.

    Seriously though, I think it depends on where you go.

    If I was going there I'd expect to spend more money on staying in a safe neighbourhood and taking those extra security measures.

    But the point I was making was that it's a country that has a solid economy and a culture that's a little bit more in tune with my priorities. There's quite a few solid places to live in where South America/Asia/the Islands are concerned: Venezuela, Honduras, Phillipines, etc. I've even heard Vietnam get mentioned by a few people.

    It's all a matter of personal taste really. I totally get why people would want to stay in America though. It's also a pretty good country.

    There are a lot of yunguns here as we can see. Once they get out in the world and mature they will start to see things as they really are. Right now too young and too dumb. You picked up on it because it's very real.
    I'd agree with you except I'm one of those "yunguns".

    I can't say I'm qualified to judge either way.

    Why ignore my question? You go around accusing everyone new here of being a troll THEN it's something about their mother. Are you really that ed up? Try dropping the stupid comedy bull and answer a question...ok?
    I think I've only accused you of being a troll. Everyone else is legit. Except maybe Ashbeigh...

    I don't bull , I also never say anything in hiding I wouldn't say to your face. What have I missed on...be specific!
    Possibly on everything you post.

    And I'm not too sure cantthinkofanything is wrong in saying you're someone's troll.
