I also read yesterday's topic,
After you signed the power of attorney agreement during the initial consultation, did you pay the initiation fee ？
If not paid, I don't think the lawyer will move.
You said you left it to your apprentice, but I don't think he will move if you don't deposit the money.

｢ The "starting fee" is generally paid when the attorney begins the requested work after the power of attorney agreement is signed. The "fee" is paid after the case is completed and the contingency fee is calculated.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

There is no talk of a deposit or any money.
I consider you a shady lawyer.
I haven't heard from them since the first time at all.
No mention of contingency fees either.
I called the office and the receptionist said she was busy and would call me back.

I was expecting a good lawyer with 4 ／ 5 stars on a review site with over 100 reviews.
My husband and I have no idea.

I guess when they didn't mention money, it means they actually refused the case. Sorry.

I don't think the divorce will ever be finalized without your signature, but you might want to ask your lawyer.

Kana
Do you still want to live with such a husband? ？
If he is not realistically independent, I think you should return to Japan completely.
If you also have to take care of your mother, it would be a good time.

Women who live in Hawaii after divorce make a good amount of money, so
they pay their own rent and mortgage.

You should consult a divorce attorney ！

If you are going back to Japan to take care of your parents,

it would be safer to sign the divorce papers and return to Japan permanently. It would be safer to sign the divorce papers and return to Japan permanently



You should return to Japan instead of thinking about moving

or find another cheap apartment before you are evicted

If that is not possible, you can always move to a new place
or find another apartment before you are evicted. If that's not possible, find someone looking for a roommate


If you go back to Japan often, find a stable job here

it's impossible ！ to get an apartment without stable income
You can't even rent an apartment ！ If you have a place to live in Japan

You don't have to live in Hawaii ！

In Japan, there are day care centers

You can go to work while your parents are left in Japan. ？

You can go to work while your parents are there

Before you are evicted from your apartment for having an affair

explain to your landlord what happened and what he should do

to help you. <4166> You should consult with him ？ if he is paying the rent

since he is the one who signed the contract for the apartment, the deposit

refund will be given to him

he will be evicted while he is back in Japan

you should talk to your husband about what to do

when you rent an apartment, you and your husband should pay half the rent and deposit

and sign a contract together ！

It is advisable to get and keep separate receipts

I see.
You are too good a person to pay off your husband's debt. ！
Maybe that's why Japanese women are so motel.

I know there are many people who have been divorced or hired a lawyer, but
with or without children, owning or renting a house, when they got divorced, etc. Everyone is different, so
you should check the latest information yourself.

When I got divorced over 10 years ago, legal fees were cheap, but
I think they are expensive everywhere now because prices have gone up.
Among them, you should look for a lawyer who is conscientious about his/her fees and who suits your needs.

Hawaii is expensive and if you don't mind a Hawaii-based lawyer. it's the age of ZOOM and a lawyer in the mainland US might be cheaper.

Kana, you paid off your husband's debt, and now you are in the opposite position
and when you are blessed with a job, you commit adultery and unilaterally force him to divorce you
and kick you out. I can understand his frustration. If you have been married your whole life and have fallen in love
with someone else and decided to divorce her, you should blame her and give her half of your property ， and half of your savings to you. I know a friend of mine who divorced his strong-willed wife, left the house and everything to his wife and children, and left for his new
girlfriend with only a typewriter. Are these men gone now? Throwing away their belongings. Dump their baggage, kick them out.
If this is the reality, then take only the things that are important to you and give him a letter saying that you will come back for anything else that is not important to you, and have the landlord present
and record the conversation. Confirm with the landlord the last day he will be moving out and ask for a certificate. If his belongings are destroyed, contact a lawyer and prepare the documents. If you have a bank join acc., check the balance. Choose a lawyer who offers a free consultation, and try to keep it to a reasonable amount of time.
Set your watch to 25 minutes, since it is usually 30 minutes, and ask a friend to set the timer so that you can both be there on the day of your appointment.
I think it is a good idea to use various service organizations.

Hanahauori, my daughter took the test last year and was not accepted.
There were almost 260 applicants for 24 slots,
27 were accepted last year and 30 made the wait list.
I heard that my friend's child was able to stay on the wait list.
Hanahau'oli does not take the kinder exam, but the junior kinder
Wait list is filled only by those who are left out of kinder to Punahou or Iolani.
About 200 are just rejected.
It's a miracle that they even stay on the Wait list, it's such a competitive school.

Thank you all.
It is still a very difficult school. I was told by the school that it is more difficult than getting into
Punahouiolani.
I see that only a very small number of students can remain on the WAIT LIST.
I thought about trying Hanahauuolis School since I was not accepted to my first choice Montessori Community School at age 3, but the school told me it was extremely difficult and just the best in Hawaii for my child's education if I could get in.

Thank you for your valuable input.

I think you should just submit an application.　My daughter got in from Lillee K without any knees or anything, and my son got in from 2nd grade.　Admission to Kinder is only available if there are openings, and the child of a waiter who took the pre is entitled to it, but I believe they submit an application every year after that for the rest of the school year.

There were a few kids who moved or moved to other schools while they were in school.

Dear Aloha
Thank you. Both of your children attended Hana Hau'oli.
I see that you can submit an application every year from Grade 1. We didn't make the WAIT LIST, so it looks like we can't submit Kinder, so
I will try again for Grade 1.

I was told that there are a few slots at Montessori Community School where some children move from Grade 4 to Punahou, so there are quite a few slots to get in again with a Grade 5 applique.
I am sure it is for the same reason.
＃ Exactly the same as 2cake's comment, Elementary is small, close to teachers and classmates, and a good environment for close attention, and afterwards, almost all of the students go on to Punahou or Iolani
either Hana Hau'oli or Montessori Community. We are in a friendly competition to send them to either Hana Hau'oli or Montessori Community Elementary.

If you don't mind my asking, did your children go on to Punahou or Iolani after graduating from Hana Hau'oli?
What was the best thing about attending Hana Hau'oli? Please let me know if you don't mind. Thank you very much.

The majority of our children's classes were Punahoe, Iolani if the parents were alumni, and a few were mid-pack.　We both moved to Punahou in 7th grade.　The best thing about attending Hana Haoli is not only the quality of the teachers, but the community with the parents has been a great asset.　I believe that my children have learned to think and act on their own.　It's been a long time since we graduated, but we still have a close family relationship with both the children and their parents.

Wind, my child also received a Central Union acceptance letter
on the first day, and 3 other children from the same daycare also received acceptance letters ！
I am sure they are anticipating a situation where many children are turning down the offer, so I am sure they will be giving out many acceptances from the beginning this year to earn their enrollment fees. ？

We didn't get into St. Clements either. Same waitlist.
I also applied to Queen Emma, Montessori Community School, and Unity School, but they haven't announced their acceptance yet ！ Most of them are in March

Central Union, I haven't heard from anyone who applied this year who hasn't received an acceptance letter ！
St. Clements is not easy to get on the waitlist … we have to wait and see ！

Hello.
This is a little different from the topic, but my child took the Punahou kinder from Hongwanji Mission School and is now attending Omidyar. Read on if you are interested.

Classmates are from Central Union, St. Clements, Angel, Unity, a few from Early School, Paris, Seagull, Star, St. Patrick, Midpac, Japanese kindergarten, and many other preschools. One was a waitlist and continues to attend Hongwanji. We only took the Punahou test, so we have not heard from others whether they were accepted or not at Iolani. ）

If you are choosing a preschool with a view to taking the Kinder test, I don't think they will take a large number of students from one school, so you should not be concerned about the competition （ which seems to be very high ） and not just from famous preschools. I think it would be a good idea to choose a school that is easy for your child to attend, even if it is a school where not many people take the Kinder test. （ Unfortunately, our child did not fit the academic school culture of Hongwanji, so we applied to Punahou, and now she seems to be enjoying every day. Hongwanji had Japanese classes two days a week and swimming in PE, which was nice. As for the details of Punahou's Kinder exam, I asked my child what she did after the individual interview, and she said that she chatted with the interviewer, did shapes and puzzle problems on her ipad, and drew her face in pencil on white paper, just FYI. The group interview was online, but the interviewer read a book and asked questions about the contents and thoughts, and they sang a song together.

This is a long story, but I hope it will be useful for those who are going to take the Kinder exam in Punahou.

Nice to meet you all.
My child is not yet old enough to attend preschool, but I would like to ask two questions about general matters. I would appreciate hearing from as many mothers as possible.

1) About transferring children in the middle of the school year
Many of the mothers who have written here have started their children at one of the preschools before Kinder, and when they reach the age that Punahou or Iolani accepts them, they take the test again and if accepted, they transfer. I felt that many of them took this procedure.
I, of course, was not at all uncomfortable with the idea of transferring my children to a better school if they were accepted, as some of the mothers here have done, but my husband said that he would feel sorry for them if they started school and made good friends, only to have them leave after a few years. I began to think that was true.

When I say "in the middle", I mean, for example, in the post by #39 luckyitem just above, that Hongwanji Mission School is an integrated school up to 8th grade, but they don't let students attend until the final 8th grade and then transfer "in the middle". I mean that.

So here is my question to you all.
If you are transferring your child from one school to another, have you encountered any resistance （ from your child ） such as "I don't want to change schools because I like my preschool ！" or "I don't want to change schools ！" ？
I am sure your child loves his/her current preschool very much. ？

2) About taking an entrance exam to another school for transferring from one school to another
If you are applying to a different school, and you are transferring from one school to another, the school you are applying to will probably ask you to submit an internal application form such as a teacher reference form.
If that is the case, the preschool will know that we are planning to transfer to another school if we take the exam and pass. ？

I myself took the junior high school entrance exam in Japan and started attending an integrated junior high and high school, but when I decided that I did not like the school I entered and wanted to take the high school entrance exam and transfer to another high school, I had to submit an unofficial report for the exam, and when I told my homeroom teacher, she told me that even if I did not pass the high school exam, I could not return to my school. I told my homeroom teacher that I needed to submit an unofficial report for the entrance examination because it was a rule that I could not return to my school even if I failed the high school entrance examination.

Isn't there such a rule here ？ If you are going to take an entrance exam to another school in order to leave our school midway through, won't you be treated as if you can't come back, even if you are not accepted ？?

Central Union is only available up to preschool, so there is no option to stay at Central Union for the kinder grades. People who are considering Mainland colleges often want to get into Punahou or Iolani sooner or later, so you might as well get them in when the time is right.

For example, at Punahou, if you care about your current school and stay through 8th grade, you will almost certainly lose your chance of admission.
----
In 6th grade, we would welcome 88 new students, bringing the total number of students in the grade to about 280; in 7th grade, we would welcome another 80 students to Punahou; the 8th grade vacancies would be determined by natural attrition; and in 7th grade, we would welcome a total of about 80 new students to Punahou.

＞ Dear Mr. Enel
I apologize for the delay in thanking you. Thank you for your reply and valuable information. I see that both Iolani and Punahou have a limited number of grades that can take the entrance exam. If so, I would assume that other schools are expected to transfer in the middle of the school year.
