to "new": yes, you are cool. but would you please go back to your home and ask your grandfather why your forefathers left home, came to this country and stayed in this country? did they miss HOME? let's suppose you are not american indian and your grandfather still exists.

Do you mean you hate your family and you want to leave them and go somewhere and start again, with no friends? Or are you trying to chose between two lots of parents?  The question is a bit hard to understand.  Can you give more information.x

Depending on how long u have left i would say just put up. Otherwise just stay with freinds or family.

Ran away from home when I was a kid, I didn't get far as I lived on an Army Base in Belize and the guards wouldn't let me escape...just as well really, how I was going to get back to England to live with my grandparents (which was the plan) is beyond me as I had no money and they lived 50000 miles away!!

Ive got the same problem with my -- 'out-laws' But luckily for me they are going abroad this year so we are safe. Next year might be different though cos we've had some turbulent times and I dont think I will ever feel the same about them again.\n\nI would try and keep it nice for the children we have but if it weren't for them I wouldn't be bothering.

An honest answer is usually a good thing but not always appreciated it might just be easier and more tactful to tell them that at the time the plans were made it sounded like a good idea  but after some soul searching and consideration you feel that things are different now and it wouldnt work out like planned and you would rather not put any more strain on an already strained relationship. They may not like it very much my parents hated it when I moved out of the town that I grew up in and I kept telling them I would come back.  It took me six years to finally come back after having cut everyone in my family out of my life to have them finally figure out that I dont do things the same way they do and that I am entitled to my life and opinions. After a long time and a lot of relearning in our family we have a great relationship.  There is always hope for the future but you must consider what is best for you and not what is best for them if it is not in keeping with what you want and need. Much easier to tell them now that it wont work out then to move back and have it all fall apart in six months to a year and bring even more division to the family. Good Luck with your choice.

Go back to your own country and ask them. Stop taking stuff from our children. I am not trying to be shitty. But just go home and come back here legally.

Money isn't everything.  But you didn't say how long you've given Japan a try.  I think you should stick it out at least a year.  You are always home sick at first and then things click and get better.  Not to mention what learning about another culture can do for you.  I mean it isn't like it is forever if you don't want it to.  Agree on a time length things don't improve then take steps to improve your life.

That's the case since 9/11. It was already taking long now it is longer because of all the necessary recently added security layers to go through. Just keep waiting, renewing and enjoy one of the best places to live on this side of life. It is worth the effort, believe me. When discouraged think about your descendants that will benefit of your patience and endurance. The people that gave you harsh and rude answers do not realize that one day someone in the past of their family tree thought about them when trying to get settled in this land of the brave and the free

Be patient.  If you have only been working on it for weeks you are ahead of the game.  I have been advised that it is going to take me a year or more to bring my Filipina wife to the US.
