“Oftentimes, when one talks to parents who are considering moving to Mexico with kids, the focus of the conversation is on potential negatives. What if they don’t like it? What if they don’t learn Spanish? What if they don’t fit in? What if they fall behind their U.S. counterparts? What if they don’t have the same sports? What if they can’t get into a good college? Rarely is the conversation framed around the potential positives or benefits of growing up in another country and culture. I think this largely contributes to the persistence of “confidently wrong” perceptions about raising kids in Mexico.”
