I am writing this because of my 19 years in New Zealand has not been pleasant one
For the members that want to know,there is a big reason why I took a trip to Japan this year,one of them is that my parents have lost touch with reality,if anyone wants to know what I mean,I will try to explain,for the last decade when my mum worked in a supermarket as a checkout person,she would come home stressed and she would put work first same as my dad,both have shunned communication with their overseas family and they are now become more cult and new age like and also in terms of New Zealand media,international news are less screened on the New Zealand TV so that has made me more concerned
If anyone wants to know what I mean please go to the below link and view one of my comments where I warn about the people who always put work first in New Zealand tend to lose touch with reality,it already happened to my parents

Another part of me wanting to leave New Zealand is that my parents have lost touch with reality,this is what happens when people put money or work first,I have noticed that when comparing food prices and cost of living and other costs with other countries,New Zealand seems to be the most expensive,lets take Japan for example,they have 5% GST and New Zealand 15% GST,when I lived in Japan for a month,I found their food was cheaper and also entertainment was also cheaper in Japan,and then transport costs were way cheaper than New Zealand,all I want to say is that it is really easy to lose touch of reality with the outside world if people like my parents decide to put work first because when I try to tell them living overseas is way better than New Zealand,this is why I tend to try to travel a lot because relegating yourself to New Zealand can make people lose touch with the outside world,it can happen to any migrant who puts work first as well
