If she&#x27;s come to the conclusion that she doesn&#x27;t need any of the services that she gets as a citizen, for the reasons you&#x27;ve given, then why is she still a citizen? Either it&#x27;s worth it (including any emotional attachment) when you balance it against the cost or it isn&#x27;t.<p>But if she chooses to retain her citizenship then she&#x27;s incurring a potential cost to the US, which surely it&#x27;s reasonable for her to contribute to.
