Re: dont want to go.

I didn’t want to be a sales assistant for the rest of my life working on minimum wage, so I did something about it! He too can do something about it e.g. do some courses leading to a degree etc and looking for a better job. Unfortunately outside of dreamland, these opportunities don’t come served on a silver platter! He just sounds a bit indolent by wanting to run away back to Pakistan thinking life will be easier for him there. Life can be just as good in the UK if not better if he makes the effort.

If he wants a better job and life - then he needs to wake up and work hard to get it.

What we dont know is if the dude has already explored that options.

putting oneself through uni as an international student is tough enough when one is single and sharing some crappy flat with other dudes and sharing expenses, it is much harder if you are responsible for all the rent and expenses of a family. IN which case it is perfectly fine for the dude to go back and finish his degree, and then later if he moves to Uk he has a degree, can get a professional job and go for masters part time.

I just dont think there has been an open discussion about issues, long term and short term needs etc etc and needs to happen.
