But if no one is been pushed, then I’m really happy for people who move down there.

But it just really anoys me that *some* parents may put their own needs over the wealthair of a child. Which it is their resonsibility to look after. The child may of developed relationships and be used to things where they are. To make a child to leave a country against his or her’s wishes, when they can not (not) do anything about it just sounds wrong to me.

But as long as you are not affecting other peoples lives, then I guess it ok. I’m just against familys pushing their children to do something they do not want to do. Children get use to the schools they are at, make friends then are pushed to brake these bonds to please their parents. Is that right? But if no one is been pushed, then I’m really happy for people who move down there.

I’m not sure …
I’m not sure NewZeland is as good as everyone says. You still get International problems, Global Warming and all that. I’m sure they have issues down there as well, plus after time it may just feel the same. Loads of people come down to the town I live and say the UK is a great place to live, but to me it does not feel like that.Also dragging children down there feels selfish to me.
