[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did your parents make you into a mini parent? You realize the US is a very dangerous country? Agree you need therapy.[/quote]

Why does she need therapy?    That’s a very normal response to hearing that your sister is moving to a dangerous developing country.   And everyone has anxiety.  If it’s debilitating then hopefully she sees a doctor for advice.

The US has a relatively stable government and people don’t routinely disappear never to be seen again.  Unlike countries like Syria with a brutal dictator and constant civil wars.

Unless Sis is moving to Ukraine, Gaza, or Sudan, the new country probably doesn't have a higher murder rate than the good ol USA.  Sis probably won't be murdered at a 4th of July parade, a school, a Las Vegas concert, a Batman showing, or any number of places where Americans are murdered daily.[/quote]

You sound... very online. US is ranked 55 worldwide for intentional homicide rate. Plenty of countries are in far worse shape.

The US is huge.  Florida, Texas, or any Deep South state can get you shot just by passing another car.   They pretty much have no gun laws.    New England has gun laws so you’re more likely to be murdered by a family member than a stranger with a gun. [/quote][/quote]
