MummyZ 134 Report post Posted February 20, 2013 Well I was quite young so do not remember it much, but my family left iraq because of saddam and lived in iran, i was born in iran but we moved to syria after a short time. After syria my father decided he needed to get out of there and headed for england. But it is diffcult. I have friends who have married from abroad and moved to a different country, they do find it gets lonely.I got married and moved to a different city which is an hour away from my family and i find it hard being far away from them.But with time you get used to it, id say the first few months are hard after that you just get into a different rountine and get used to it. 1 shadow_of_light reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow_of_light 1,188 Report post Posted February 20, 2013 Yes, living in a town/ country where you have no relative or friend can be very difficult. Moving house and furnitures can also be difficult and troublesome unless you preplan for everything. I cannot understand how families who have little children can easily move house without the help from their families and relatives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MummyZ 134 Report post Posted February 20, 2013 I think realistically you would not take furniture with you. You would find a new home and buy almost everything new.My parents had 5 young children but they felt they were forced to move in order to have a better future for their children.Sometimes they dont have a choice but they just have to make the best of the situation they are put in.What probably helped was that my dad brought me and my older brother with him here. He had his sister here and we lived with them until my dad managed to get us a house and settle in. Then a year later my mum, two sisters and younger brother came over. 1 shadow_of_light reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think people like your parents (specially mothers) who manage a family with 4-5 children must be very strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
