Guest Karenadam Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Hi guys, got a great opportunity to move to Perth for the start on the next school year. Only problem my 15 year old is adamant she is not going. Any advice would be so grateful at this moment. She is into the rock band scene. Thanks. Karen.

Loopieloo Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Im exactly the same, 15 into rock music! haha! my parents told me a while ago, im movng with my mum and not my dad, obviusly he is upset about that! I have got used to the idea of moving, but we are moving to the goldcoast instead, im moving in a year! And everytime i go to tell someone about it they say "you have to go, although we will miss you! Its better to try something, rather than gowing up and wondering what its like!"

Guest Taylor72 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Hi Karen We've been in oz twelve months now and my daughter was 16 when we moved. She hated the very thought of the move and said we were ruining her life. I have to say she tried every trick in the book not to move here and gave us a very bumpy emotional ride at the beginning. 12 months on she is embracing life so much and although is struggling with the education system, loves her life here. She actually says now that if we thought she put up a fight to come here she would fight us so much harder to stay. The turn around is amazing,both my kids are doing good at school andlove our lifestyle here, which is a million times different from UK. Don't get me wrong its been a roller coaster but we are happy. She will come round with time, good luck xx Annette x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
