Is this move for sure or something that is merely under consideration? If it is for sure do you have grandparents or aunt and uncles you would be able to stay with?

Wow that is hard. I know how difficult and how it seems like that moving to another country would be the end of the world. I honestly think your mother really took alot of time to think about this decision before she told you. You can discuss with her your concerns and ask around with your friends to see if any of them would take you in.

I know that moving away would be hard. And moving from all you know and the friends you love is even harder. But new experiences and friends are just as positive. I know it will suck for a while but it will get better and it always does. *hug*

I know it is hard, you sound very settled and happy to be living in Birmingham.
Where is your mum considering moving to? If you do end up moving abroad, it isn´t all bad and you will soon settle in to your new country. If you do end up going abroad, try to look at it as a great opportunity with plenty of chance to broaden your experience in life and to see and do many things that you cannot get the chance to do in the U.K.

I moved abroad at 21 years old, from the u.K and I have lived in France, Belgium and Spain, where I am still living. I have learn´t french, spanish and have experienced so much of life by living abroad and you can too.

Have you spoken to your mum about your worries? speak to her an d tell her how upset you are, however if it´s definate that she is going to live abroad and that you have to go too, then think of the positive points, it will be like having an adventure! keep in contact with your friends and family, they will come and see you after all everyone likes a cheap holiday!
