Didn’t Trump meet with Japan’s president a couple weeks ago and promised to not impose tariffs on aluminum and steel? What exactly was accomplished in that meeting that was in favor of Japan. Trump cannot be trusted.

I sincerely apologize for the disrespect shown by this individual towards such a significant cultural site in your country. It's truly disheartening to witness such behavior, especially from someone who should know better. I hope you can find it in your heart not to judge all Americans by the actions of one person.

Like many others, I have deep admiration for Japan’s rich culture, history, and stunning landmarks, particularly its beautiful shrines. Thank you for your understanding.

I agree with those here ;

The incident with the young girl is a tragic accident and loss.

Who are we to sit back and judge even without harsh speculation commenting in any manner is wrong. Such behavior shows lack of empathy, and respect towards the girl and her family. Such judgements and presumptions will harm the girl’s reputation and intensify the family’s grief. We are better than this kind of behavior. What if this was your family member, friend, or student would you want rumors started without facts in her memory?

Posted in: 16 tips for raising a bilingual child in Japan See in context

There is so much support and emphasis on teaching Japanese Children, English. What is being done for children toddlers who already speak English and live in a bilingual family and speak Japanese as well? Where are toddler play groups where all the children speak English? Support needs to be given to families with one parent speaks English, and the other parent speaks Japanese, where does a family find English-speaking friends for their child? There are a multitude of friends who speak Japanese a three-year-old also needs English speaking friends done.

I love this show; my interests are not this actor, but the twists and turns of the plot. The content introduced with this new show is realistic for the modern world with cyber terrorism. Hopefully, individuals watching will take note to how there is a great deal of reality and similar likely outcomes in our real lives away from media entertainment!

Someone please give us some direction , my son was hired by a language school in Tokyo. He came back to US in May for his work visa (which still has not arrived). He lives with us, no job, spent everything toset up a life in Japan, planning to live there permanent near his sister, her husband who is Japanese as well as baby nephew.

Is the Japanese Embassy Holding new work visas for Americans?

Who does he contact? Will be still have his job when he returns? The company has not contacted him either.

Every $ he had was spent on what he needed to return there and live. He is so depressed and without direction, sitting here waiting to return and contribute to your country and the people of Tokyo .

Help us!
