People are always asking me if I would like to go and live in Oz with my children. At one time it was possible to do so if more than half of your children live there. Things are much different now, and you would need to have a large amount of money to even consider it.
I also have been staying with them for three month holidays, moving around between them. I love them all dearly, and get on well with the in-laws, but after a couple of months I start hankering for my home. It’s lovely to get back and ‘do my own thing’ again, without having to fit in with everyone else. I also get really tired of the sunshine, strange as it seems
I would do lots of research on the Oz government website before applying to emigrate. I would also think long and hard about how you would feel about giving up your independence. Families often have fall-outs, as we know from reading GN posts. What would happen if you sold up, moved in with the family, then were asked to leave? You may think that it could never happen. It happened to one of my friends, in this country, after getting along well with her DD all her life. Living together can bring out the worst in people!
