[quote=Anonymous]From my personal experience with western europeans, they either want to arrive in early summer, once they are done with school, or spend the summer back home before arriving to US in August or September. Our family prefers the latter, because I think the summer is not the best time to transition, and certainly not a fair representation of the rest of the year in our family. We also like to vacation in August, and I would be weary of taking a brand new AP we don;t know on vacation, and I thin kit would also be weird to leave a new arrival at home. By arriving around Labor day, she starts right when the entire family is in transition. The summer becomes the highlight of their time with us, and we end the summer (and her year) with a vacation together. Perfect for everyone. We happen to be on A December arrival right now (due to 1 rematch and 2 delays in arrivals), which really sucks, but it's our last year in the program, so it was only a drag for one year.[/quote]
