Follow up question, is he receiving any judgement or questions by the people around him assuming he might be Ukrainian? Like if a Ukrainian man of that age arrived at the boarder would they turn them around and say "get back in and fight?" It'd be awkward as hell I'd assume. I'd want a giant union jack on my shirt or something so people don't people don't assume the worst.

I thought about this a lot in the last few days, if nz was invaded and all my male friends, my dad, my brother were told to stay, would I stay with them? I decided I probably couldn't leave and if they had to take up arms I would too. But I couldn't decide what I'd do with my dog. If I left she'd come with me for sure. I hope your dad was able to take the pets. Obviously nz is an island and it wouldn't play out the same, but I ignored that part for the sake of this introspection exercise.
