Indeed. The devil IS in the details. Thanks for the inputs anyway.

When I work out the economics of getting a Green card and weigh cost against 
risk in the short, medium and long term, India appears to be a better bet for 
me and my family. I can do more for them from here.  However, I will mull 
over what you have said and see if the knowledge makes any difference. My 
decision would probably be different five years from now, but with my kids in 
a fairly crucial phase of their lives the instability of moving may not be 
beneficial to them and will be completely disastrous for me (and therefore 
potentially disastrous for my kids)

Everyone I know who wanted to go to the US, went on his own merit and I think 
my kids should be able to do that too. If not, my current thinking is that 
they will gain nothing from depending on me to get them there by virtue of a 
family Green Card. I probably won't do that and I will (probably) be the 
second generation from my family to have passed up the opportunity to live in  
the US. My father did that in 1945.
