So I'm back from the USA. Didn't even last until the start of football season. I'd watch high school games, college games and some Ravens. Unfortunately, I have a messed up back and the health coverage in the US is not as great as many other things you have.
I went to the US as au pair in February, but blew my disc out and couldn't do the job. And as you do not have automatic health coverage for all, or complete health coverage for doctors' visits, I had to come back. The health program the au pairs are offered only covers emergencies and when I called to check whether my back would be treated for free, I was told "No way Jose!" So I came home, where I don't have to pay every single dollar of what I earn for doctors.
Just wait, it's only going to get worse, sadly
I hope not. I've already seen, that Americans often send sick kids to school, because you don't get any employee rights or 4 weeks of holidays like we do, or the doctors, so the kids don't get taken to the doc and the parent just cannot afford to stay home with the kids.
