I know you want to know exactly why raising a white family there is horrific. You must know how incredibly racist and xenophobic they are. No one who loves their family and could make ends meet in whatever English speaking country he’s from (unless it’s South Africa) would choose to raise white kids in Japan unless you’re running your family like a cult or some ****. There’s no sincere social outlet for foreigners. No matter what you do you’re just a novelty clown over there. The only way that bridge is ever crossed is sexually and even romantically it’s rare. He’s supposedly by choice keeping a family in a land where they’re considered freaks.

I've always wondered what he expects of his children over there. I mean I don't imagine that any Japanese will ever consider them Japanese or that they will have much in the way of marriage prospects who aren't also whites. If they enter into any profession I assume they'll be hamstrung about as much as blacks are either now or even worse from earlier decades. Seems like he cares more about his own fulfillment than his children's futures. Can they even own property? I'm pretty sure immigrants can't but can immigrant children own property?
