These days many people leave their country to work abroad and take their family with them. Do you think benefits of this outweigh disadvantages in terms of family
development?

The opportunities to work abroad are more today than they have ever been in the history of
mankind. The big planet Earth has become a small global village and sovereign barriers seem
to have disappeared. While working in a foreign country, some individuals take their family
with them. This situation has both merits as well as demerits but definitely the merits
outweigh the demerits.
There are many obvious benefits of going abroad to work along with family. To begin with,
individuals have more bonding with family. The family relationship would not be weakened
by distance. Some couples finally end up in divorce, as one or both of them cannot endure
the long-term separation. Secondly, many people feel homesick and lonely and therefore
cannot adjust in the foreign country and return home thereby missing the golden
opportunity of working abroad.
The most important point is that children, especially who are in young ages, need the care
from both parents. Childhood is a crucial phase of life and comes only once. If children are
deprived of one parents love it may have a considerable impact on their psyche. Therefore,
working abroad with family can provide complete love and care to the children.
On the other hand, there are some problems of working abroad with families. To begin with,
living with family members abroad means more expenses. A single person can share room
with someone in the initial stages but a complete family needs a proper house. What is
more, all the members face stress of adaptation to alien surroundings. Parents themselves
feel culture shock and therefore cannot help their children.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that, there are both advantages and disadvantages
in any choice of this issue. Personally, I believe that people should decide according to their
specific circumstances. If there are financial constraints, then it is better to go alone initially.
However, the family should be called as early as possible.
