Answer 1

Nothing we say is going to help you stop them from moving. This is part of growing up and from the sounds of it, your parents are already having a hard way to go so you need to quit making it harder on them. Families should work together when times are hard, not make it harder on those we love, so why not quit thinking about yourself and try to help them with what has been a difficult decision.

Answer 2

Sometimes life throws curveballs !! I am sure that your parents thought long and hard about their decision to move and they way you would feel about it. There are probably reasons which you don't understand, or that you are unaware of, that they have to consider. I am sure they want what is best for your family as a whole. I know it is a difficult thing to go through, and I am sorry that you feel badly right now. I can guarantee that your parents love you very much, and feel bad about how this is affecting you. I am sure it was not an easy decision to make, but if they still made the decision to move, they must think it is the best decision for everyone. I think you need to look at the entire situation instead of just your point of view. Change is difficult for a lot of people, but you never know what wonderful, new and exciting people and places you will encounter when you move. If you do end up having to go, try to keep an open mind, it may not end up as bad as you think.

Answer 3

You are in a bad situation and there is not much you can do but if there is someone you can stay with like family then ask your parents if you can remain with them so that you can continue your schooling here without interruption because things like transfers can really mess up a kid and affect there grades and rank/standing. Tell them you realize that they probably have thought this out and have no other choice to move but if only to finish high school you want to stay with relatives but during summer/holidays you will be with them. Tell them that perhaps after a year of getting used to the family having moved then you will be ready to join them but to forgive you for asking but you would like to stay a little longer. when they ask you why you want to stay be calm and do not mention the boyfriend.

Answer 4

.. What I would do is .. Ask to stay with your g-parents... or if you have a great best friend with great parents who have known ur family for a long while, maybe u can stay with them for 3 years then get an apartment

I am 16 and I would hate to leave..

Also, look at the people around you, they WILL CHANGE... trust me I had wonderful friends.. until high school came and they all started smoking and having sex.. look around you and see clearly what you will become if you stay and what you can become if you go...


If all else fails.. Cry for the first few weeks, and then when u start to get friends in the new place.. everything will start to settle and maybe... you just might like it

Answer 5

What is/are the reason/s for your parents wanting to move to another house? Is it a bigger or smaller house due to financial issue? These are the questions that I am guessing that only you know but you did not mention anything.

Even if your parents are determined to move, there are still ways of communicating and seeing this guy. Though the latter is further away, if there are means, there are ways.

I feel that you need to understand and accept the reason/s of your parents wanting to move.

Answer 6

Well, it depends on different things - WHY are your parents moving? If it's a job transfer, there's not much they can do other than lok for another job.
How old are you? If you're over 18, you may want to consider staying and renting a place with some other girls. If you're under 18, could you stay with a friend to finish off high school?

Talk to your parents rationally and explain your hesitations. They may consider putting off a move if they really feel it will disrupt the family.

Answer 7

I had exactly the same experience as you are. When I was going to move, I had to lost my house, my loved ones, my house. I miseed those for three years, I still missed a little. It was poinful to miss those things, but I was fine, because I met so many new people who were nice as old firends. So dont think too hard about your life. Or you could live in dorm.

Answer 8

ur parents Ren't interested in a temper tantrum. look into ways 2 prove u'll get a better education where u r now. find articles by phsycologists 2 prove them that moving in the middle of school is 'detrimental 2 ur "emotional wellbeing"'. find out about places u can live in ur hometown until ur old enough (and rich enough) 2 get ur own place. show them ur mature & responsible enough 2 do this. if u show them how much this means 2 u, i bet they'll change their tune

Answer 9

I'm so so so so so so so so sorry. I know you feel like your world is ending and hearing I'm sorry from a complete stranger isn't what you need, but I'm have no advice, it sounds like they have their minds made up. I know it's not easy and you don't want to but maybe try to see where your parents are coming from, why are they moving. millions of people go through this, you can do this, keep strong.

Answer 10

Tell them how you feel outright and if I knew your age I could help more. If you are underage there is nothing you can do but move with them.

It might be difficult for you but with your familys help you will get through it.

I was in this situation once and my advice is to follow your parents advice they really DO know whats best for you.
