I totally agree now its taken a while for us to realise but you are so right x

We are going back my husband loves it but I have always missed my family and friends as I loved my life in the UK before we came here which is nearly 8 years now, we return in May mainly for my son who has learning difficulties and they dont have the resources here to help him which reading lots of forums seems to be the main reason for brits returning for the kids education, home is where the heart is and I am lucky that my husband has agreed that we need family support, it sounds a bit different for you as your parents are in OZ mine are in UK and I miss that madly. It was my husbands dream and we have a lovely life here, but I really dont care about the pool in the garden and the big house as we wont have that when we get back but family is far more important that materialistic things and I know we are doing the right thing. I really hope things work out for you what ever your decision go with your heart. x

Hi Jane We are currently doing the same thing, our son also has Aspergers and really struggles even though he is social but not so good in a school environment, he also is in a good school but they do fail him because of lack of resources, I recently went back to the UK and they really have better strategies in place and also other support is free as long as you have reports etc which we are in the process of at the moment, we are from Essex and moving back in May 2014 we will live with my sister for a bit until we find somewhere but its hard without family support and we really need it, any info I will pass on to you and if you get anything would appreciate any advice from you also.
