[quote=Anonymous]You lose a half year of schooling, and send kids in mid year. You also land them in the middle of darkness and winter, which can be tough. I don’t see the educational advantage. Although NZ is amazing. I also would not be separate from my kids for long periods of time, no matter how many weeks I can get at Christmas. And, of course, they would have summer vacation in the middle of winter. Can your husband parent them FT? Especially during COVID where NZ could prevent me from entering. Now, Barbados is allowing anyone who telework to move their for a year. DH and I both telework FT for the indefinite future. I would take my HS kid there, rent a house and have her DL from Barbados in a heartbeat. If we didn’t have a house here, pets — and a freshman in a US college during COVID. I feel like we need to be nearby (okay, 6 hours away, but in the country) his first semester during COVID while so much is up in the air. But I can always dream...[/quote]
