    well what i can tell you from my experience when i was 9 years old i went to the u.s i learned the language pretty fast and i speak english like if i was a native american, i always enjoyed being around with americans. i guess is because kids don´t have to worry much about getting a new job from a different country, kids only have fun, they go to school, they make friends. they don´t have to worry about important things in life like having a job, getting money, support your familiy etc. they live in a world full of fantasies. do you know what i mean? adults needs to work, get money, they get to have more responsabilities, they meet new people and sometimes adults can be much meaner then kids.

    for example. if a kids goes to a school from another country, he would make friends pretty fast. will go to school, have friends, chat with them etc. they don´t have to worry about getting a job and having a boss from another country. besides kids are experimenting in this world so anything new that they see they love it!.

    because an adult has lived so many experiences and have gone through so many adaptions when he/she was young, that now the adult is adapted and his/her life is sustained by a particular way of living. If that particular way of living that they formed through their experiences is changed or broken, the adult has to adapt to his/her new life again

    now, a kid is a person who is used to changes, the kid, since he/she was born, has had to adapt to life as he/she could, for example, when they were born they had to adapt to a new life outside an uterus, they had to adapt to a life when not everything is gaven to him immediately,

    like the food, which was gaven to him/her by the navel string, and now if they need it they have to cry, otherwise the mother wouldn't give food to him/her

    kids are always adapting, they have to learn how to walk, then to talk, then to behave good, to not hit other children at the kindergarten, to cross the street holding their mother's hand, etc.

    CONCLUSION: kids are used to adapt in their lives, on the other hand, adults have a preformed way of life and thinking, which they are used to, so when there's a change, the kids are the ones more likely to adapt

    Well, for starters, do not contain the children till you understand that you simply each are inclined to deliver your dating one hundred%. It breaks my center while the children begin to get connected to their father and mother' new companion then it does not determine. The deficient children turn out to be getting harm once more. It's tough ample that their father and mother are now not in combination, however to convey one more grownup right into a baby's existence then for that dating to get a divorce can also be simply as heartbreaking as their father and mother no longer being in combination. For me, if we had been supposed to be in combination, I could haven't any disorders taking good care of his children.
