[quote=Anonymous]OP, when you say this, it is a huge red flag to me -- "We have visited Singapore (earlier this year) and I think we could handle living there for a few years". Look, moving a family abroad, with two working parents, is a HUGE thing to do. Emotionally, logistically, financially... It can be great, it can be hard, and I am not addressing any of the SG or age-specific aspects here. It just is an all-encompassing thing, for the family, for a long while -- the prep, the move, the return. I would say, based on experience, if you are not itching to go, if you are viewing this as something you can "handle", chances are you will be overwhelmed by it when you are in the middle of it. Of course you are thinking about the fit for the kids as you should, but I just sense a lack of that spark in this idea, and without that spark, an overseas move is a hard hard thing to pull off happily or successfully. Good luck with your decision. [/quote]
