Yep... you have surprise me again...

I think that it have become important when you have start seeking a foreign husband... you need learn to make thing in the good order... like take a insurrance before the incident and not after !

Oh! Don't worry I am learning and I am not going to make a mistakes.

Problem related to mother and son need to be spoken now... not when you will have find a groom... don't believe me ! Read the post of photo guy... about his "fiancee" who was in US and have return in Ukraine for take care of a familly member with some illness...

If you talk about my case, I said already ...I have a brother who can keep in touch with me and who is an adult and can solve many problems. And of course I will go back if it will be necessary. 

Thing related to own family, like mother and child need to be the first stage of the process... if family is something really important for you, that you cannot miss, better never start seeking a foreign husband...

Yes, I know. My son is the most important thing in my life like for all mothers.But I think I must prepare a place to bring him.And I don't think it needs a long time.

Whooowwww... have never try... and because she is old, she will not understand... show a lot of respect from one generation to the other... are your own child acting in the same way... saying you : "you are old and cannot understand" !!!

Sorry. I don't care about your tone of this comments. She is really old and she is very far from all these things what we are talking about.My mother knows enough,don't worry.

Taking care of parents is not a duty... it is something that any good child will make with pleasure... the reverse is true too... for good parents, taking care of children is not a duty but the reward of love, a joy of everyday ( almost  :P )

You see what you want to see.

Again something that you need to think about before start... let see... one year dating periode, one year visa, one year language school, some professional formation, start work, and a few year for be financial secure... you are not so young, your mother is older... are you sure that she can wait so long... hmmm... make her come life with you... need to see where you seek a husband... Here in Belgium, it will only be possible after the green card... and you need to sponsor her totally...

Yes,I am not so young.Happy now?

Once you have find a fiance, something to speak about with him... not every man wil accept that your mother  come life together with him and hem... or maybe you plan to hire/buy a house/appartment specialy for her !

It will be a part of our conversations,discussions and plans.

Sofia, it is not a critic but i see that you are involved in international dating from some time... but you have never make the "homework" needed before start these process... later, it will be to late... you needto think if a foreign husband is something for you...

What do you know about my "homework"? I will never move without a clear picture of future life. I am not desperate.

love is something wonderfull but live is not only love...

OH! A lovely end!  :)

Just a few thing and i am done with you....

Hmmm... like for some other thing, you see always the bad side...

My comment was not about your age... but about the fact that your mother is a very elder woman and that all the way to a secure situation in a foreign country is a very very long way...

Who say that you are desperate ? Don't translate word by word a post but see the general meaning... the homework was related to discuss your project with you mother ? Not that she have to agree or not, you are a adult but that she know about it...

And "what i know about"... i simply know what you wrote and i make my comment about it... but the problem is that in one post, you say "white" and in the other you say "black"... if you are making story, keep the same line... don't change every topic page... it will make you more credible...

Now, you can post what you will, i will never disturb you with a reply to you post... you are not here for try learn like you say but for have confirmation of your idea... keep going but don't cry later if problem appear...

Good luck in your quest... you will need it !

No, darling,I am able to see all sides.

My comment was not about your age... but about the fact that your mother is a very elder woman and that all the way to a secure situation in a foreign country is a very very long way...

Which age do you think the best for a move to abroad for women? Yes, I am old but I can not change my age.And many men here said women 40+ are not unperspective.I agree with them.Sorry...

Who say that you are desperate ? Don't translate word by word a post but see the general meaning... the homework was related to discuss your project with you mother ? Not that she have to agree or not, you are a adult but that she know about it...

No, I never discuss about my project ( I mean my plan how to do live there, how to do my business now here,...) with my mother .I do my life independent. Is it that what did you want to ask? Yes, we live together , we discuss about many things, but NOT ABOUT BUSINESS.She is 72.Our life in Russia was dramaticaly changed and she was living in other system.

And "what i know about"... i simply know what you wrote and i make my comment about it... but the problem is that in one post, you say "white" and in the other you say "black"... if you are making story, keep the same line... don't change every topic page... it will make you more credible...

Now, you can post what you will, i will never disturb you with a reply to you post... you are not here for try learn like you say but for have confirmation of your idea... keep going but don't cry later if problem appear...

Yes, I will post messages and not only one.And you can disturb me...not problem. I am here for learning.And I am not going to cry at all. I have problems every day ( it is life) and I am able to solve all these problems still...with helps of my friends and other people too.

Good luck in your quest... you will need it !

I wish you the best too,

Don't worry if I will have some questions to you I will ask. :)

Can you please try to explain again what are you talking about, because for the life of me, I have not a clue!



If you never took care about your old parents then you sure have no clue what I'm speaking about  And if idea that old parents left behind after children moved abroad could be big problem without good solution because of objective factors then there is no need for me to explain you here something in million time. Soory I'm in a hurry to my job

I have told you before that sometimes, because of your convoluted English, I do not understand what you are talking about and is not my fault. Do write more clearly for us to understand please. I am not a mind reader sorry.

When I came to UK first time of course I did not forget or left behind my mother. She was visiting us for long periods but always wanted to go back Home……..and she did frequently.
She was very happy to be here, see us and her grandchildren, enjoyed her time here and other benefits she couldn’t have for free, like National Health…….and she was part of our family.

Is there anything more I should have done?

 Problem is not in my bad English - it's good enough for you'd understand that talks was about old parents of girls Say me you didn't got THAT because my English was SUCH bad and I'll spend the rest of my life hiding in dark corner because of a shame

 Problem is that you can't get what's life could be for old people who have to live alone in Russia ( visits 1 time per year , which in addition happen not such regularly with time passes) does not solve situation at all Also as living together and raising those grandchildren is not your "tradition" like I see it's hard for you to get that taking away grandchildren could be a stress for old people as well
 In general nobody of you was at place of those old parents so it's situation сытый голодного не разумеет
 I from my side and with my mind just can't get how it's possible to be " a part of family" ( REALLY be) at a long distance I just see very clear  a difference between my parents who live next to us and parents of my husband who live in other city ( close to Moog but far enough to be what I consider like a part of family. His mother of course visits us, calls us, likes to boast about achievements of her granddaughter but.... she is not the "same" .

As for you personally then I'll try my best English and ask you a question ( "theoretical"one )
- have you any plans ( with calculation  price for example) about mothers of  women you are going to marry? As you date not 20 years old girls I guess their mothers would be in rather old ages. And you told you were not rich enough to raise one more child. How about supporting old MIL - it would cost a lot as well or are you going to find a woman without any problem already? Or do you think it would be no problems and evrybody would be just happy?

Also what're rules in your country about bringing "her parents" How many years should pass before it would be possible? And how are things with health care for those parents in case they relocated to your country?  - all sucha question which I think should be on mind of those who are going to marry from owmen abraod, or am I too naive?  ::)

That Russian tradition is similar in Greece too, today, where the children, who live in the same town/village, take care of the grandparents. Of course other children of the family may live in another town but normally they contribute to their upkeep if they have not enough income and visit them as often as possible like in your case. For us in Greece everybody is a family and we do not differentiate, in general, from those living next to the parents or not.

I get the impression that you suggest because the grandparents will feel stressed from the absence of their grandchildren the mother of these children should not move and live in another country thus prohibiting her to possible improvement of her life style. Somehow I do not agree with that because the mother obviously, before embarking in search of a foreign husband, had thought about the consequences and made that decision to go.

In my case and the age bracket 40 – 50 yrs I am looking chances are that the women I will be dating will have no children commitment and that is one of my stipulations. If there are any children then possibly will be adults, possibly married and do not live with the mother. As about the Babouska depends on her age she will be possible to come and join us and be taken care off. The immigration rules of UK permit that. There of course can be brothers or sisters who will take care of her and us visiting her at least twice a year the least.

May I point out that a woman of that age for sure will want to find some kind of work to get out of the house, which will give her the opportunity not to get bored and also earn her own money and that will reduce the burden of the Babouska costs. As about the Health care this is available for free, like it was for my mother.

You must not forget that today communications are instant and very developed and you can talk to other people on the other side of the world on camera from your computer, as I do now on a regular basis with my own grandchildren who live in Los Angeles and follow their progress. Everything can be arranged to keep Babouska happy.

Hello Sofia and Wiz and Kuna and Elen,

  I don't know about getting a room but maybe we can get one and have a party?..lol..Maybe we can all get together and talk and learn? I like talking to Sofia and Wiz and have yet to talk to Elen but that would also be nice...Do I need a room for that?..lol

  I have learned a lot from Mr. Wiz and continue to look forward to his posts and Sofia is helping me understand the west versus the east as best she can. Seems very sincere in noting the differences and impressions as it would be hard to ask myself questions and get better answers from myself than from Sofia/Mirror.

  Sofia,

  What is the general feeling for Russians these days when it comes to hopes for the future for those living in Russia? Do people do like Americans and live in a manner that forces them to think hard on money issues or is it something different they think about? In a daily routine for the average Russian what is the mental thinking and the priority that they may feel on a daily or weekily basis?

  I apologize for the many questions but I do want to learn from you as you are Russian.

Thanks,

Makkin

Thank you, Makkin

In present time we have more possibilities to make money.We can have own businesses.Every day our business people become more "civilized" and more often connect with west. I mean a big cities.
Of course provincial regions have not a big possibility to communicate with West in business. It is because of "control" from goverment side. ;) Therefore midle russians can make more money a little easier than before.But only if they want to work. :) It become more interesting to earn money.

Our pensioners have not money to live ( I mean pensia 2000-3000  rubles-it is nothing) and of course they can depend from children.Therefore we who works now must think about our future.Russia have not a good perspective financial national programms for elder people. Therefore more young people must think what to do.
Concerning me I know  many ways how to save money correctly in many founds.I know what is it shares, trade markets,Forex,...but the most russian people here doesn't know about that.

I'd like to ask you too how do you plan your future life (like american)? What do you do every day for your safety in future?  And which national programms do you have there for old people?

Sofia

Elen,

Thank you for your questions. I think the question about grandparents and granchildren is not more harder than the problem about parents and children when children move to abroad.I think all people can feel sadly themself with a partings.And I hope every WM must know that and  can be more tender with Russian wife if she feel sick there without relatives and parents.

Of course I think about it.I'd like to have my russian friends or relatives abroad ( I prefer the UK,where I have a cousin,and friends, Alaska where I have my russian lady friend with her american husband ) and I try to find friends through internet for widening my geography.

I can say more I am sure I can find friends anywhere.Because I am open for that.

If I may ask you tell me ,pls, your opinion how do you feel this problem? And maybe you can give a good advice for me.I will happy to read.

Sofia

Hello Sofia,

  Thanks for the answers as they helpme in understanding. Now I will try to answer your questions.


  How do you plan your future?

  I plan my future on investments like the 401K. The 401K is an account of savings that you contribute to from your pay. The company matches a percentage free and then you choose the best programs that you feel will grow your investment. The company usually gives you a vested amount free.My company gives 5% free and it is put together with my contribution which can range from 1%-25%. The maximum annual contribution allowed from myself is 15,500. I save 25% of my pay in this program and will use this to put with the social security retirement that all Americans recieve at age 62. This is also known as a pension. By using the 401K you can miss paying taxes as allowed my the government and ay age 59.5 you can withdraw. This can cause you to retire at that age if you choose to do so?
  As far as medical insurance goes it has a complex effect here in America as some companies offer these benefits and others do not. Anyone at the age of 65 who is under the social security act in America is given free medical treatment etc...operations and all that stuff. If you are under 65 but you can show you have the need you will still be given free medical..lol This is usually found under the Emergencey medicaid requirements as anyone is free to file. It gets complicated from this point but free medical is used a lot here and once you are in the system you are in so to speak.

  I hope I did not confuse with my answers..lol I apologize in advance as I wrote so fast I probably confused things.

  Thanks,

Makkin

Hello, Makkin

You could understand me very well.You are like a handbook for me.I can know a lot about Western life from you.I am greatful to you for that.

In Russia women can be retired at 55 years old and men at 60 y.o.Only people who works with dangerous and unhealthy terms of job can be retired at 50 and 55 y.o.

Our elder people in Russia have not any social national programms for keep their health for free.Only if old people are disable workers ( but not everybody,it depends from a group of health)  then yes, they can have some privileges. Our government tries to give more privileges and to guarantee that but ...not finances.

Our stomatological service is very expensive affair even for working people. What can I say about old people.They have not any chance to make their teeth at all.Similar situation is with medicines. It is very expensive here for elder people. The most of them need to take medicines every day ( hight blood pressure, atherosclerosis,for brain and memory..).How...?

If children can not help them with finances then...you can quess.

Our National health Service in  a serious hard  situatuion.

When I was in the UK of course I was very interested how my colleges work there.I visited one lovely general practicioner ( physician) there and she let me to watch her reception. I was very greatfull. I can imagine my job in the UK and I like it more than in Russia.

I never been in USA and I can not compare.But I'd like to know how my medical colleges work there.

May I ask you to describe for example your visit physician in USA, pls. How do you name your physician ( I mean not real name)...I mean how do you name there physician if you have some problem with blood preassure  ...is it therapist, general practice, or maybe different ?

Thank you,

Sofia

Hello Sofia,

  How do you name a Dr.? I think that's what you asked and not by his or her surname?

  Usually there are different specialties for physicians here as there are probably in your country.

  My doctor is called by me doctor..lol..

  There are Internalists,General Practitioners,endocrinologists,surgeons,and there are a host of other specialized doctors. Usually after finishing medical school a doctor goes on to an internship of a few years and then makes a specialty effort for his or her practice in medicine and this is where the specialty comes  from and the title of the specialty. For instance my personal doctor is a general practioner but he is called an internalist as that is his specialty. The reason I use him is because he is close to my home and at the same time he is very good and advanced in medicine.

  My daughter uses a doctor that is referred to as a pediatrician because by law and practice a doctor usually wont see a child for treatment unless it is an emergency or they are trained as a pediatrician..(child doctor). Yes the specialties vary and whatever area you look for is easy to find.

Hope that helped?

  What type of doctors exist in Russia?

Thank you,
It is what I wanted to know. There are in Russia we have therapists who treat adults and pediatrists -for children. Only recently we took a possibility to be GP ( medical students can become GP and any therapist can learn 6 moths to be GP).

Also we have endocrinologists,gastroenterologist,cardiologists, surgeons and  others....

Yes, we have our therapist by territorical point. We can not select therapist ( I mean for free)-only which one our close polyclinic gives us. We can visit specialists after visit our therapist or ourself.It is not problem.

Emergency if we ask a help by 03 can give us injections, but tablets -seldom.If it is a big problem with health they can take you to a hospital.

It is a different story if somebody has not a insurens polise. You must pay for everything.It is rule.

But if it is very poor people and has not money for help (drinking people, tramps,...)our all doctors will help you for free.

What I can see in the UK the most of doctors -GPs. And what my lady friend from Alaska about doctors there were different. Therefore I asked you about that. In the UK -no therapists like in Russia.

Now as I could understand in USA therapist can works like GP. And as I know USA has many doctors but needs more.I think I like a doctor can find a job there easier than in the UK.

I'd like to ask you many another special questions about medical but I affraid ( because it is not your speciality)  you are not able to answer.

All the same I am gratefull for your interesting message.

If I may ask you ...maybe can you tell me a little about your field of job? It is very interesting too.

So. I find our communication is usefull ( for you too).

Sofia
