Remembered when we fall in love, thought that was the best happening to each others. As time gone by things have changed. The spouse became abusive, calling you names, beating you up said you are no good SOB. Eventually you could not take it anymore so you filed for divorce. It is a painful long process. This usually does not happened overnight. Some had to wait for years due to young children, finance, jobs and other factors.
That is exactly what happened to many immigrants came to US decades ago with hopes and dreams. The land of hopes and dreams now turned abusive promote Asian hates, accused you are spies for your motherland, reenact 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act and making you an enemy of the states for no reason except your skin color.
When you complain, some not only show no sympathy, they said you got abused for so many years already, why not just accepting it as a price to pay to live in this foster home.
Unfortunately not everyone will play dead. The smart one with skills and resources are saying I am not going to put up with it anymore.
If it is a couple, they filed for divorce.
If a country does that to you, you give up the citizenship and return to your motherland. Not every immigrant has the option to return home, fortunately Chinese has that option.

Giving up US citizenship seems to be a trend and new normal in Silicon Valley as well as in Hong Kong 放棄美國國籍似乎是矽谷和香港的趨勢和新常態 Jan 6 2023
I informed my friend after receiving the text message:
CL: According to the above message, looks like my friend’s daughter did it with the help of Singapore Gov’t.
Coincidentally, last night I had dinner with another friend for 20 years who has a 19 years daughter attending Cornell University, her daughter also planned to give up her US citizenship!
Two families in a day were surprised 15 years ago. Today, it has become a new normal giving up US Citizenship!
The big difference between our discussion and Chinese families in Silicon Valley and Hong Kong are their families including parents and grandparents are in full support for their children and grandchildren to give up their US Citizenships. Looking at the dozens I know who gave up their US citizenships last 5 years! Only one kind of people did it: they are all smart, educated and full of energy!
I do not recommend kids not belonging to the above categories to give up their US Citizenships, especially those that are on parent’s or grandparents’ welfare plans!
