With no concept of thinking in your head they just say shit out loud. Not to mention poor socialization on levels we haven’t seen in any other generation before

I know it's a number of factors, but l've heard some say that one of them is rising poverty rates. Parents who are busy working to make ends meet don't have the time, energy, or money to teach their children the skills they should know, and instead often have to rely on childcare, where there are multiple children per staff member - in my state, the legal ratio for 4y/os is 1:12. Similarly, schools are hard places to have individual needs met, as student/teacher ratios are rapidly getting worse.

Do you see the poverty level and education system here improving in the next 10 years?

Not at the rate we’re at, not without dramatic change. The wealth gap in the US has been growing dramatically over the past ~30 years and there’s nothing in place to make sure it won’t keep growing

So you can understand why I would want to raise my kids abroad and then bring them here for college
