My 17 year daughter will be arriving in few days...I am so happy!
But at the same time have mix feelings...I and my husband prepared for this for many years, fought for it in courts, spent money etc, but now the time has come and we are worried, excited, sad...it's a mix feelings
there would be a lot of changes and adjustments specially that our place is too small plus an 18 month old toddler.
Will they get along? money matters? Privacy?
just want to hear what the other family deal with it....
Is it that you are here in the UK and your daughter is joining you here?
If so there will be lots of changes for her, but hopefully all will go well
Mick.
Hi Mick, yes she is joining me here his lil brother and my husband.
just a bit worried for my husband how would the changes of new dynamics affects us. but we are all positive about it.
When I moved here with my Daughter she was 3 years old. I thought I will have problem in Nursery or she might have difficulty to find friends.. etc.. etc.. I was deeply worried too... But on her first day at school. She already settled as if she was born in this country (UK). Infact, I was the one who had separation anxiety not her.She got loads of friends now. I am sure your daughter will be fine.
my stepson was nearly 18 when he first came to the UK, now he's 23,has a job, lots of friends,as far as i know he has had no problems at all settling in.
I hope she doesn't pick up the bad habits of that generation here.
That would be my main concern as a parent...but not much you can do about it.
just a bit worried.. i think my hubby is not ready for the changes at home...
when my mother in law arrived i knew exactly what to expect because i knew her and the family well..
Your husband should be expected to greet her and treat her in the same way he would a member of his own family..
If he does not then its time for you to put your foot down woman!!
Would you put up with anything less in the Philippines?
