You want a 'kid friendly' society? Move to Spain!, or many other countries You might even be able to get healthcare ! (Which is nearly impossible to afford in USA)? USA typically hates kids, very evident in social and political agenda. YMMV, but definately prepare yourself for PNW.... We keep a home in TX so we can participate in society. (Not so possible in the Me First! (Me ONLY!!!) PNW. TX is great during the 280 days / yr of drizzle in PNW. (which is great during the 80 days of HEAT in TX)

We were on assignment in Spain, and it was GREAT for our kids. We lived in several countires and home schooled. Age 12 they were 'apprenticed' into skilled trades, Age 16, our kids took advantage of WA free college instead of wasting time in High School. (Running Start... Available in HI and WA) a REAL plus for tens of thousands of kids.

International living and working was very 'formative' to my kids, I would not want to reverse the benefit it has brought them. (it is also very good for your resume / pay / travel budget / world perspective / education) ... AND it has extra benefits during an Election Year
What do you mean by 'me first, me only'?
