Look, I'm trying to find answers here.

You have a lot to say, but you never, ever provide any documentation to back yourself up.

What I got, I got. I didn't make it up. I found it myself or received it via others.

If I'm wrong, I would be delighted to be corrected, but not by someone who is simply spouting opinion.

Produce your documentation. If I'm wrong and your documentation corrects that, I'll be the first to thank you, but to just say “you're wrong” won't fly.

Clearly state what I've got wrong sand correct it with factual documentation. I really do want to get it right.

Produce your documentation.

Highlights:

B. ELEMENTS OF RENUNCIATION

A person wishing to renounce his or her U.S. citizenship must voluntarily and with intent to relinquish U.S. citizenship:
  1. appear in person before a U.S. consular or diplomatic officer,
  2. in a foreign country (normally at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate); and
  3. sign an oath of renunciation

    Renunciations that do not meet the conditions described above have no legal effect.

Parents cannot renounce U.S. citizenship on behalf of their minor children. Before an oath of renunciation will be administered under Section 349(a)(5) of the INA, a person under the age of eighteen must convince a U.S. diplomatic or consular officer that he/she fully understands the nature and consequences of the oath of renunciation, is not subject to duress or undue influence, and is voluntarily seeking to renounce his/her U.S. citizenship. (Emphasis added)
