Q: What would you do if your wife's parents get sick?

You don't speak Chinese, you wouldn't understand what Chinese doctors have to say. What can you do to help if your wife's parents get sick and she need you to take them to hospital, how does this communicating thing with the medicals  work?

I would let my wife do the talking. If she is not around then Google Translate is always there.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
