No we are talking about personal belief here. If someone really hated where they lived regardless of family don't they have the right to move to a place that they love where they can feel free and be themselves?

Yes if they are free and single, no if they have family responsibilities as it has to be a family decision.

In your opinion yes. But what your opinion is is not the opinion of others and others with families.

People stay in situations they hate for all sorts of reasons, jobs, family, laziness, better the devil you know, money.

"Regardless of family"???

Well, if it's a person who wants to move to another place that they love and set up a new life in another country I would hope they came to that conclusion BEFORE settling down with a spouse and kids.

If they have kids, then no they've given up the right to "do what they like on a whim and feel free". Being a parent involves a degree of selflessness.

I think all those single one parent families around the world would disagree with you on that. But in a perfect world yes but sadly the world is not perfect.

Disagree with me on what?

Yes, there are terrible people in the world who abandon their kids, your point?

My point is that those single parents who's spouse has left them and the country will not agree with you.

So?

As I said earlier, those people don't have the "right" to think of only themselves and their own happiness. That was my point.

It's selfish of them, they should've thought about what direction they wanted their life to go in BEFORE having kids and then burdening someone else with the responsibility of raising them.

I guess that's how the immigrants who land on our shores feel. Here's hoping you would be better accepted than they are.
