I am living in USA since 1993 but I brought my 2 boys to India for school in mussorriee India
Now my elder son is doing regidency in emergency medicine in Miami and you younger son is software engineer in Dallas!
They are well rooted in Indian culture , spiritual knowledge and experience of our great land.. I’m also planning to move back to India soon when they get married.
I choose to live in rishikeah but belong to Punjab.
Love to hear when someone says that they are going back to India because there is nothing like our country in the whole world.
My elder son always ready to go back to India and practice medicine in India
I came to India but experiencing depression now I regret why I went abroad
Nice to know
I m currently in US and having two kids in their elementary age I moved here 3 years back and I really feel the upbringing which I was able to give their is not possible here and I can the effects
I am really looking to take them back and but I am confused which place to stay with them as I m looking for good quality of living like rural area with online schools
Can you pls suggest
@sukhvinderkaur5304 ji did your kids go to St George's by any chance? Did they adapt well to Indian school? Rishikesh is an excellent choice, coming from a punjabi born and raised in Uttrakhand :)
Good decision in your case
Amazing content and thanks a lot for creating the channel to share your experiences. I (like many other viewers of yours) am also thinking of moving back to India in coming years so your experience will be of a lot of value. Looking forward to see more from you !
Challenges lie ahead .... critical events to watch out for: 10th Exams > 12th Exams > College Admissions > Seeing your friends looking to go abroad for higher studies (a place that you gave up in past). That is where competition is killing in India.
We moved back to Bengaluru 17:46 in 2013 after 10 yrs of stay in US..my kids liked and adjusted in couple of months.The points you mentioned are valid..I am now more options and less hassel to adjust..
Thank you Sir for spreading positivity about my INDIA ❤
Hello- thankyou so much sir! I do firmly believe in India and its future. Stay connected.
I liked your suggestions on helping your kids with schooling and make friends. Can you talk about the future plans for your kids as well? Are you keeping their options open between USA and India etc.,?
I would like to hear your opinion on this question. Great video. Thank you for sharing your experience.
We are planning a move after 10th Grade in USA...my kids can read write in regional language..fluent in mother language..planning to join IB board for older one and CBSE for young..hope it works out..🎉
How about the career transition for you and your spouse?
Hi, great videos, as someone who plans to head back, I am curious about the following:
1) amount of money you think is good to sustain
2) when is the "right"/optimum age for a child beyond which one shouldn't make the move back home
3) does your elder one plan to apply to US universities and head back?
4) what did you do with your 401ks, 529, other investments, home etc. Any tax saving suggestions? Opening a trust etc.
Thanks,
Kumar
U are awesome creator with good voice and way to out across things. Dont stop making videos.
I appreciate that! Thankyou so much for your kind words
How much is the fee difference for a US citizen child in schools in India? For example, if your elder child is an Indian citizen, what are his fees, and how much are your younger child's fees since he is a US citizen (NRI)?
Hello there is no fee difference.
@myNRILife
by which grade of a kid, one should plan to return to India so that they get time to adjust with education pattern and be ready for their 10th grade.
Sir ur decision is right because India is the best country to live and will always be
Kuch Saal ke Baad iska bachhe fir se videsho Mai Jakar higher study ke liye chakkar lagayega....
You are right its challenging for kids but they adapt quickly. Family values are more important for their and cultural and spiritual growth. Most importantly we can stay close to our perents in their old days. It is great deal for me that i fulfilled my responsibility towards my parents.
Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏
Education system international board to change hua hai, par JEE/NEET ka tayari kaise ho payega?
Is it possible to have a US educated kid move directly in to 10th grade in India, CBSE or international?
Great video
Good content with good real perspective. Towards the end you mentioned the kids are getting independent in India and in previous video you mentioned that one of the reason (to move to India) was kids become independent in USA and are at their own after college (which is very true for majority of cases). I can understand your meaning of independence of kids in India versus USA is from different perspective but some people may take it wrongly. You did great job to point out everything in an excellent way. Kudos to you.
One point No one discuss about pros for USA is about the life expectancy in USA. There is discussion about air quality but that relate directly with life expectancy. India has average life expectancy of about 68 years: whereas USA has about 78 years. That is 10 years of productive more life expectancy in USA. Again, thank you for sharing your wisdom and experiences...
I agree 100% on the point of life expectancy mentioned by you. Also ill be more discrete going forward. Thankyou so much for your feedback! Stay connected.
@@myNRILife sure, thanks!
Thanks for sharing your kids will appreciate your decision later on
I think so too!
Good Content your subscribers are gonna go through the roof and NRI s who are locked in loneliness forever as they get old without kids now shall get FOMO feeling😂.
Im also from noida, living in North Carolina right now. Which apartment you choose to live in noida? n which city you moved from usa?
In America too much of pampering and comforts for kids they should learn to know the value of money
Zomato se bachchon ko bachao. Your kids should ultra minimize Zomato ordered food. As much as possible they should only eat home cooked food. Lax food regulations means food in most restaurants is VERY unhealthy
Agree !!!
Hi Amit, can you share examples of such societies?
did you get your GC when in usa?
sir kids are fee kya hain for 2 kids? Pure CBSE?
Your opinion will become extremely negative about India the longer you spend here-civic sense, broken infrastructure and corruption have no solution
.. Or on the contrary, one might get adjusted to these cultural and civic situations over long run
I agree with you ..i will pay anything for citizenship in west
Please make a video on higher education for US/Canada born citizen children in India. There are OCI quota in NIT's and some Law schools. But not sure about rest.
Thanks in advance !!
Bhaiyya jo Apne bachho ko USA se lekar India aaya padhane us se aap higher education pe video banaye Bo rahe ho...pakka H1B VISA renewable nhi hua hoga isliye TH-cam pe Gyan dene AA gya ....
How you are planning to manage your 401k (you have Roth or Traditional ) and any stock accounts ? Please make a video on this topic as well.
Good luck.
What is your take on kids facing health concerns post coming to India because of immunity?
I understand your feelings, same happened here
We miss India too due to family we have been here for almost 28 years I have three kid
One was 4 and 9, andthe older one was 14 years old when 😊we raised our kids in good manners,
They are married to Indians too
One is a Surgeon and the other doctor
But now we feel alone miss our family and India
I think we go back but its not possible
Buy the way which place is good to live in India not Parmannent 😮like 6 month
My Brother is in Delhi,
too much of the pollution in Delhi is in Delhi
Goa is the best! We are from there and are planning our move from NJ to Goa after living in the US for almost 16 years
I love Goa too. We might not stay in Delhi for ever too. We plan to move because of this very issue. Thankyou so much for your insights. Please stay connected.
You could try a part time immersion instead of moving

Always try any country side. India is very much developed now. Dont worry
Why would you leave US I cannot understand. Just like you say pros and cons in every country then you have to realise that US has gun culture but India has many other things which are as bad as there. You wanted to come . It’s nothing got to do with children.
There are 3 choices :
1. CISCE(ICSE and ISC)
2. CBSE
3. International Board
liked ur content..living in Canada..PR/ citizenship is always with me ..but not sure if should come back..monetory not that rich as Canada is very expensive n too much tax
Nice. Good Tips
background music very very annoying, maybe old concept, maybe popular in India
Nothing is perfect i think its personal choice and can vary from person to person , i know many who just waited to becone citizen first to other countries to get pension benefits etc.. and then move back if you are so much passionate about india then why those people give up their citizenship at first place?
you need to remove BGM while speaking, it's just absolutely annoying
My sister sent her only son to abroad now in 6 yrs she regrets the decn she made to send him ,dependant to core,only meeting on thanksgiving day, living with girl friend last 6 yrs bow he will complete 24 in dec. No attachment towards parents i donot persoannly like as well,u made right decn at rights kids age to move back to india
You speak exactly my learning as well. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the community. Please stay connected.
What’s wrong with those- he is coming home to visit his parents and living with his girl friend. Which part annoys you? It’s all about the mind set- children are not your fixed deposit . Or they are not ur property.
Please do let me know ur kids age??
Many students i do see here lives with other female students which parents not aware of back home ,i am abroad as well
Thanks for sharing your insight bro. Stay connected.
No need for the disturbing background music
Good content
i my opinion pollution now should be the 1st priority of gov but due different gov in center and states they dont take any action for political gain same goes for civic sense gov dont take any major action against those who break rules
Is uour elder son able to adjust in studies well ? My son is in middle school here in US and we doubt if he can adjust to education in India. Considering topics students study in India might be advanced and if that will make things difficult for him in India..also considering competitive exams in India if my son will be at disadvantage compare to Indian students
Very true. My elder kid is preparing for competition exams. But you are right its not easy. Kids work very hard in US as well to get into premium colleges. Its similar here.
In Same boat.how. r u thinking abt their collage n job prospects In future...worried abt this issue while thinking moving back
@@doctor71717As btech student in India agar cse milega top NIT, IIIT top 5-7, ya IIT, job milna is about 100%, par bas CSE mein baki ECE bhi accha option hai roughly 90 percent placement same type of college mein aur CSE mein package per annum milta hai avg 20-30 lakh in colleges mein aur ECE mein around 15 lakh per year in colleges mein. Par agar general chaiye ho to 17000 rank se andhar chaiye hoga JEE mains mein. Agar aap ka baacha foreign citizen hai ya class 11 ya 12th bahar Kiya hai to woah DASA category ke liye eligible hai NIT aur kuch IIITs mein, us mein to 2 percentile 13 lakh rank mei bhi ECE top NIT mein mil sakta hai. MDS Mtech dual course bhi accha hai roughly 20 LPA in these colleges.
see all comments, i hope lawrenceBishnoi does not notice this new income source!
Life is so primitive corrupt dirty and risky in India
Do kids complaint about cleanliness as there is less cleanliness compare to USA !!!
Do they face any health issues in pollution????
Not really, my son goes to an international school and the infrastructure, cleanliness is way better than NJ public school where he used to study
@@heenadedhia4948it depends on a place. Like Delhi is polluted. In Goa where my kids go is a nice, green state with lot to offer. In fact we have people moving from Delhi to Goa to avoid pollution impact on their kids health.
There are no cleanliness issues in the community we live in or the schools they go to. But yes there is general poor cleanliness on the roads. Kids haven’t complaint as such but im sure they see it.
👍🏻
यहा प्रॉब्लेम face करणाही पडेगा, गलती का परिणाम होगा.
I second your thoughts
I can put myself in your shoes
The NRI parents are selfish you want to go because you born raised there and talk about BS. what about those kids impact which kids don't express. I have seen so many kids went into depression which we can't fix.
Another point is what if parents don't work in that city I.e. Noida?
I agree at many levels and disagree on some of your comments. But i really appreciate sharing your thoughts here. Stay connected.
@myNRILife Partial education in one country, (especially during elementary, middle school or high school) and making the kids complete it another country definitely affects children. Such steps should be avoided.
It depends on the age of the kids. Its better to go before middle school and make sure reasonable accomodations are made like mentioned in the video. Putting everyone into the same bucket is not wise.
I can say that I have seen so many kids having a much better life in India while NRI kids not getting married and battle with loneliness in United States. It doesn't mean that its true in all cases.
Kids in india are not depressed? Just look around it..worthless competitive environment and excessive use of mobile..problems are even worst
Hi Amit bhai, my name is arpit garg and currently living in usa. We are in same boat with two boys and in dilemma whether to move back to Noida or not? Is there anyway we can connect and speak for few minutes? Can i have ur email or any number to connect to?
