Parenting in Germany Has Surprised Us!
In this video, we’re going to share nine reasons why we think Germany is more welcoming to families and children than the United States is. There are many things the Germans have that Americans don’t.
Is it Better to be a Kid in Germany vs. the USA?
As parents of four children, we weren’t sure what to expect when living in Germany as a big family. Germans have fewer children per family than Americans do. Suffice it to say, we have been quite surprised and delighted by how friendly Germany is to families and children. And the reasons we mention might really surprise you, too!
Be sure to check out part two, where we share how it’s cheaper to raise children in Germany!
Our Story
In February 2021, we packed up our American family of six, with four kids ages 11 and under, and moved halfway across the world to Germany to follow our dream of living in Europe again! When we were first married, we lived for two years in France and fell in love with the European way of life. Moving to Germany has been a whirlwind, especially with four kids in tow, but we’re already growing stronger and better from the experiences we are having. It has NOT been easy, but that’s how it usually is in life when you go after your dreams!
