kids bedroom ideas ireland image

Dear Jane.

Wikepedia is somewhat helpful, but I'm not sure how acurate and recently updated. I have a ton of questions I hope people can answer. Try to answer as many as you know....

My husband and I are from the US. I have really wanted to move to Ireland for a long time, and he is fine with the idea. What are the odds of us both finding a job in Ireland? Where are the best places to look? What are the best areas to live/work/raise kids? We have a daughter, but she's very young.

I believe I would like to live in southern Ireland (Republic), since it is not part of the UK, but I have heard northern Ireland is better. Are the laws that different and what area would be easier for Americans to adjust to? I am actually of Irish decent, but I also wondered how Irish people viewed America in general...like do you think we are a spoiled country, etc. like most other countries? Would it be easy for us to fit in? We both have red hair...if that helps haha.....

What is the cost of living like? How much do you think it would take, plane ticket aside, to get started? What is the rent for a two bedroom apartment (in relation to American money)?

Does Ireland still run off one electric company? How many airlines does Ireland have and what do you think the cost of a ticket one way for two adults and a baby?
Are you calling ME the idiot? You just put an answer that didn't even APPLY to ANY question up there! Why bother?

Answer
Don`t blame you for wanting to move!...BUT...PLEASE don`t move here! We have enuff idiots as it is.

Want to adopt sister in laws son,is it a Good idea?

Hello, I am a father of four beautiful children and married ten years to my wife.My wife lost her her sister due to a battle of cancer she only was diagnosed 8 months ago but sadly she lost the battle and its really made my wife downtrying to cheer her up these days is hard as they grew up together .she left behind a beautiful baby boy who is only a year and a half we found out her sister never decided who would take care of her child after because the death was so sudden .We are from ireland i myself am not irish in from the Netherlands and im dutch .i myself have no problem with taking in the child me and my wife love children and before this happened we were trying for our fifth child for over a year but have found it hard to conceive.I admit we are not perfect but i think we should keep him in the blood.we have good jobs im an accountant my wife's a nurse and i hope that way it will stand good for us so if we decide to we can get custody i think it will be up in court in about 3 to four weeks time im not 100% sure.I've not mentioned it yet with my wife but i am going to after i get advice.The child is with his Grandparents at he moment,his father is not in the picture as he didn't want to get involved when he was born.I think we can cope very well with this child as our oldest is nine down to age four so they too are fit to care and help this child when growing up .What i am wonder is would my nationality stand as im not irish but taking custody of an irish child? would we be too old to adopt im 43 my wife is 32? Could they tell us we have no room as we've a four bedroom house?And also how do we tell them we want to rared this child? i know my wife will want to because she would do anything to have something left with this child.Over all is this a good idea? Thank you very much for you're time,and im open to any advice

Answer
Absolutely not, since to do so would be (a) forcing the kid to live a life of legalised lies, and - more importantly - (b) by legally obliterating your nephew's mother from his life, he'd lose her not only once to death, but would also lose any legal connection he ever had with her.

Take him in and raise him, but do NOT force the poor kid into a life of legalised lies. Instead take him on under guardianship: http://www.privatefostering.org.uk/
