The bird makes a nest and has kids . The kids fly off to distant lands and make their own nests . Thats the rule of nature and we all have to live by it .
Exactly, do whatever that makes you happy.
It is my understanding from our friends those who have sponsored their parents that life becomes really hard for them here & it is my opinion that parents become miserable after they come here as first of all the language, then weather & then the freedom, loneliness. Lot of them want to go back but for the kids ie us they don't say anything &/or some of them it is so hard that they want to go back.
I would not sponsor my parents here as life isn't what I'd like to live here. So I lived enough here so will just go back.
Sponsoring parents is not really a good idea in my opinion.
I agree with the Indian_immigrant 100% .
Sponsoring parents is not a good idea at all . As it is a lot of compromise on both sides . If your parents like to be independant and you feel there will be no conflicts when they are with you , believe me they are more happier in India than here and if you think they will be dependant on you and will mingle a lot and would cause conflicts in the family , they are better in India than here and you would have already felt the tension durig their visits.
Besides this , they can always visit you every year for 6 months without being a PR of canada.
Just my 2 cents and is not generalized statement for all folks. People who want to compromise on privacy and their "way" of living are welcome to do so . After all we are all responsible and accountable for our decisions .

well i know my parents wont like it here...they were just visiting for 2 months and by the end of their time period they just wanted to go back...India was India for them , top of the world and thats what most of my friends parents have said
smiley : although u have shown too much maturity i still dont agree with your views on independency and other things
well certainly each of us has right to our views

Appreciate the fact that you pondered my views , you don't have to follow them or agree with them. We all have our own personal experiences to guide us in the future

One of the reasons, Ashish, why I want to go back to India is exactly this.
My parents are there in India & they feel lonely without us & my kids. My brother expired last year which has made them more lonely. They can come here but they might like it for a few months but then they will get bored.
With the kind of money I earn, I cannot take them to different places here.
thanks & rgds.
Rajan.
