If you intend to return to a life in the US, and you want your child to be a part of it, then do it, otherwise don't. I am a US citizen and permanent resident in the EU and have a son with an EU citizen. I regret giving our son US citizenship because he will now be burdened with submitting to US tax schemes. It is also becoming increasingly difficult and expensive to renounce US citizenship. We will not be returning to a life in the US, and we can see no benefit in ever sending our son to receive an education in the US (horrible school system). So, if you don't plan to return to a life in the US, don't do it. Besides, it's not difficult for Belgian or Swedish citizens to travel to the US. Don't they both have favored nation status?
