Where to raise your children

I'm excited about raising our little ones in the UK, but it makes me sad, too, Pebbles.  My girls will never be cheerleaders! 

There are competition cheer squads in this country.  We don't have one near us though   But my daughter is a Majorette - which still has the uniforms and the pompoms, but also batons And they do some amazing dance routines.

Thanks Nullmind, I actually moved and changed schools quite a few times growing up though, so I wasn't confined to just one area. I didn't mean to come across as someone who didn't realize they were fortunate to have a decent education.  I just don't think it's fair to say American schools are inferior to British schools, or vice versa, when there are exceptions. It obviously depends where you are and what your circumstances are. For that reason, you really can't say that one nation is guaranteed to give your child a better life or education over the other. Therefore, there's really no right answer, except what makes the most sense for you and for your kids' well being. (Maybe I'm just stating the obvious here?   )

Your absolutely right .. but while a US resident and school system worker I was allways amazed that the greatest country int he world would invest so poorly in school (and healthcare) for their children.
