Love / Polish Women to be nice respectful [59]

The society is raising the children.
Nowadays both parents have to work. The nanny that raises your child is doing it mostly for the money and it's not in her interest to raise your child.

Love / I got chatting to a Polish girl in a bar - opinions please.. [77]

I've read your letter a couple of times.
1. She's working 7 days a week and doesn't have time to go out.- Might be true
2. She did call you and you keep in touch through SMS - sounds interested
3. She says it's not what you think.
I think that she wants to get to know you but maybe something is holding her back? Like a boyfriend? But maybe not. She's in a new country and she's only there for a while and maybe she doesn't want to get involved? Tell her straight out how you feel towards her. Don't be ashamed of your feelings and then you will know if it's worth your time to be with her.

But the only way to find out anything, is to ask.

krysla <<who's that

oh oh. I thought it was me. I better edit what I just wrote and wait for the real krysla to show up.

UK, Ireland / Poles in Ireland, are they second class citizens? [90]

Poland can say the same thing. There are Russians, Muslims, Arabs, people from third world countries who think Poland is the greatest place on Earth! They try to get Polish citizenship and to them it's a Heaven.

Poland is beautiful, with a lot of culture and history, even though the system might not be the best...
But like they say: The grass is greener on the other side.

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

we have plenty of skilled people in this country

Doesn't sound like a traitor to me. Sounds like someone who's defending her country.
In America there are a lot of Portugese, Brasilians, Cubans mostly in Florida, and the areas where thay live are labeled 'High crime", for some reason. They don't speak any english and there are constantly problems with the law.

Compare that with the Poles living in Chicago. I go there often, they have their Polish stores, businesses, they're clean, they work and try to accomplish something in life. There aren't any problems with them. The problem is with the ones who come into America illegally on boats at night and don't want to work.,

Life / I'm a Polish immigrant. And I'm not going back to Poland. [40]

I live close to a Polish family currently. Their son is 18 years old. He works illegaly. Doesn't pay taxes. He bought himself a Brand New motorcycle. He bought a Brand New Boat. Brand new Computer. Brand New TV. Brand New Stereo. They have to have everything Brand New and the Best. They like to show off what they got to their friends and family in Poland. In America, unless you are extremely rich, we mostly buy used stuff. Used boats, cycles, snomobiles, cars. etc. Whatever's the best deal.

Life / I'm a Polish immigrant. And I'm not going back to Poland. [40]

I know some people who want to go back, even if their chances of returning to the US were slim, but, they don't want to because they didn't make enough money in the US and are afraid of what people will say.

IS good for Poland because less people in the country means more work

Yes, but you can make 5 times more money doing the same job in America.

Life / I'm a Polish immigrant. And I'm not going back to Poland. [40]

Your story repeats itself over and over. I've heard it so many times.
I know a lot of Polish people who came to America. After the fist year they couldn't take it anymore, but waited another year. It got a little better. Next year was even better. And now there is no way they want to go back. I know some who are here 20 years illegally. They don't have a driver's license, don't have a green card and are finding ways to stay, for example through marriages to US citizens. (They pay them a lot of money for that).

And some can't go back to Poland, even for a visit, because thay overstayed their Visa and wouldn't be allowed to re-enter the US again.

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

Throwing garbage out of the windows is common in Poland.

Sure, I've seen people throw a paper or two on a street in Poland. So? In America you get a big fine for littering.

But Poland is not as bad as a black community in Chicago. Boy, talking about filth! Their buildings are falling apart, the smell is unbearable, garbage everywhere, infected by rats. Poland is not that filthy. Polish people are very clean and tidy. So once in a while someone throws a paper on the street. Big deal. How do you know he was Polish?

Freddy. What do you want them to do?
It's not their fault Poland has high unemployment. Thay want to live like you and me. They want to be happy, raise a family and lead a normal and productive life. To them this is the only way out. Try to be more compassionate towards the poor. We will all die and we can't take our treasures with us.

I can see your point, there are too many in one place. That's never good. My boyfriend is in Poland and he went to work in Sweden. There are many opportunities there, and Poles are very welcomed and treated with respect. They speak English there too. Perhaps some should go there? It's a lot closer, just take the ferry.

Life / 18th Birthday Celebrations in Poland Question... [34]

less than more young people in Poland actually know how to have fun without alcohol

I don't drink either. Nor do I smoke. There are ways to have fun without that. Let them learn how.

USA, Canada / Polish people view of the United States [54]

Germany, GB and some other countries are allowed to enter the US without a visa, because they know they will return to their country. The Polish economy is poor, and they are afraid that once they open up the borders, there will be too many leaving their country for a better life. Mexicans are also poor and they enter the US illegally. Many are caught and deported.

And you are right. It's all politics. And it's not your fault you were born Black or Chinese or Polish. You still have to find ways to survive.

Have everybody come over and bring presents. Hang up some baloons, make punch, apettizers, snacks, some good music, some games, and have a good time.

But make sure you got them pierogis!!!
