Thanks for sharing your experience! It makes me feel less alone. Which country are you based in now? Conducive enough for child rearing?

we are living in Spain. for 16 years now..
It could be better.. But could also be lot worse. Cant complain. Barcelona is a cool place. I had to leave the city and move outside the city for a quitter living though
