Yup. She's only been going out with him for a couple of months and was telling me about her friend (here) with a boyfriend and they didn't even hold hands I asked what she'd done (usual car chats) and she said holding hands and hugging. I asked if they'd kissed (yes I'm a nosey cow) and she was horrified - NO!!! He has now kissed her on the cheek. In the UK half her old mates have had home runs several times over by now

Each time anyone mentions the boyfriend, hub cringes and mentally closes his ears I keep telling him that the guy seems really nice and not trying to have his way but he's convinced that any boy in their teens MUST be the same as him

I think it is just maybe the kids she knew in the UK were not so hot on contraception. The kids I taught in Australia were in and out of bed with each other. It seemed oral sex was something you did with a friend and was pretty much standard at parties.

Have they taken to the new life well and how are they getting on in their new school?? Also how do they find it getting dark earlier over there even during the summer months??

I feel so sorry for mine when all they want to do is go out and play but its either pissing rain or to cold for them to go out.

Thanks guys
HI there!
We arrived on 27th November and one of the main reasons for us coming was for a better future for the kids. I was terrified they would struggle and in the first couple of weeks they were very lonely but through this site i ahve met some lovely people, some who have kids and some who dont, and they have made the difference. R & M are much happier than i have ever seen them. They start school on Monday and cant wait! They love being able to be outside even if it is just hangin around and whilst we dont have a pool we frequently go down to the beach at 5pm and spend the evening swimming in the ocean. They cope well with the dark nights and instead just enjoy the fact that it is cooler
When we left the UK i was in a pretty much permanent state of depression, life has changed beyond recognition and we as a family have never been happier. Go for it! We all want the best in life for our kids and in my opinion i have made a huge step to improving their life and future. My daughter even thanked me yesterday for bringing them which in itself was a massive pat on the back bearin in mind they left their dad behind in the UK.
your kids will be fine, and so will you be - im prepared to drink a whole bottle of white if youre not
