Hey UrbanMyth: Holy crap you need to learn to read.

In the post you were referring to I said the following:

"How dense are you that you can't see the hundreds of thousands of families who send their kids overseas to study?"

Do you see the part that says "send their kids overseas to study?" I did not say the families went overseas to study, and a kid going overseas to study is a STUDENT!!!! That's what they call them, you know?

When I said this, I was referring to all kids (students) who go overseas to study, K through grad school.

In an earlier post, I said many Koreans emigrate from Korea to other countries, and this is very true. Were it not true, we would not see nearly the number of Koreans that we do living in places like LA and NY (among others). We would also not see so many gyopos, as the majority of them are not adopted, but are children of those who left Korea.

Koreans still leave Korea, but not nearly as many as did so in the past. Nevertheless, the majority of Koreans feel the education system here has failed and those who can educate their kids outside of Korea. For those who can't afford it, a very great number wish they could send their kids to another country, or afford to send them to an international school here.

That all sounds like a splendid reason to raise kids here. Let's raise them in a country where most locals wish they could educate their kids in a different country. Good grief!

Ok, this thread has digressed enough. Locked to be cleaned of all the unnecessary banter and off-topic garbage.
