How does my math not make sense?!? If I am a Canadian going to the states, my education goes up 3-10 times as much as it is for a local American. And I am not talking south, I'm talking University of Michigan. So, people here pay taxes and that covers our childrens education, if you want to go to a private school here in Canada it too is between $12000 and $15000 per year (ex. St. Micheals) Obviously everything in Dubai is expensive, and you are on a tax-free salary, so why act surprised?

Please I don't need to here more bickering or moaning... you chose to go there now live with it.

If there are no schools, send them home to live with their grandparents, or send them to another country. And don't tell me a pilot flying for a major airline can't afford to do so because I know people that work in factories and can afford it. You may have to sacrifice some luxuries in life but thats the way it is in life and you have to choose that or your kids.
