[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is something my husband and I have discussed as he could possibly move there for work (we're not Indian). I lived in India for 8 months many years ago.   I would be concerned about illnesses that are more common there, because your young child is more susceptible. I got very sick...food poisoning, but also a virus that was so bad I had to get tested for malaria.  Saw my elderly neighbor die of another mosquito-borne illness while I was there. And pollution was terrible.  I personally wouldn't do it, but if I had family there I would consider it.  Also, I remember the lack of hot water...could you possibly buy them an instant/tankless water heater?  [/quote]

Op here. My husband says his uncle who lives across the street has running hot water so I can shower there until they get it installed here. After reading this forum I am leaning towards NOT staying in India. My son is having so much fun here. He doesn't have relatives where we live in the US. I have a very small family and my siblings do not have children or have a desire to have any in the future. [/quote]

Go home and make new friends. Seek out people who have children your son’s age. Go to the park, sign up for mommy & me. It’s a much easier route to entertaining your child than living in India! [/quote]

Op here. My son has lots of friends in the US but it's not the same as playing with family. We're moving out of state when we return to the US so I will have to make new friends. It's not difficult for me to make friends in the US because we no longer live in the DC area. That is one perk of moving away. [/quote]
