English-speaking children who go to playgrounds in Mexico run the risk of a beating until their Spanish language skills pick up noticeably, really, I am not making that up

It's like that in a lot of California schools now.

Speak Spanish! Barks the enforcer. Or else.

The weaklings who comply are seen as easily pushed cattle.

Why can’t Trump fire or reassign some of these Federal judges?

My wife (an immigrant) and I would like to leave because we can clearly see what is about to happen,

Where is your wife from? That would seem to be the most obvious place to consider first.

There is a whole community of American ExPats on the web. Here is one link to get you started:

“Speak Spanish! Barks the enforcer. Or else”

Was the same in Madagascar when my kids and I lived there. No American child who did not speak French could go to any French school. We Americans got irked and bought the Calvert Method of Home Schooling and taught our kids from grade 1-12. This was done easily and every kids was often 2 to 3 grades ahead of their age/grade a year later.

The Malagasy were wonderful to us. The French treated us like dirt and were not helpful ...except the physicians. They did their work well and we survived some major problems. But we were not invited into French homes or even to try and talk with them. Some called us illiterate swine. I do not care for the French at all.

I am grateful for the year I spent there and do understand expats who have difficulties in other countries.
