Right, their two boys will have a great future in Costa Rica or Panama. Wait till they find out how macho and unliberal the men are there, I was reading a guidebook on Costa Rica warning women not to make eye contact with the men, as this is considered sexually provocative.
Actually, with a good education (?) and money (?) two boys CAN have a good future in panama as US citizens, since they can go back to the US whenever they want once they turn 18 and get US jobs. If they are monolingual, education is an issue unless they are in a bilingual private school where they cannot learn less than in a US public school (in english)...
