    Truth is... I prefer dreary, wet England & I'm not willing to bring my kids up over here. There's something jaded about American youth.
    When the weather is like it has been over the weekend, this is the greatest place on the Earth.
    Except, possibly, New York. Sorry.

    Jaded?

    Not having interest or losing interest because something has been experienced too many times.

    I'd say Disenchanted.

    No longer believing in the value of something, especially having learned of the problems with it.

    Your kids are going to be just as disenchanted in the UK as they will be in the US as they grow - in fact, probably more so.

    To be honest I can't remember. Both were to start a subsidiary there so I doubt the H1B was the means of doing it.

    Wow the US is more advanced than I thought if they are able to get the whole population to decide on each VISA application.
