I think this post should be deleted under rule 2
arseholes is a very offensive word and not one I'd expect a moderator to use

You are offended by arseholes? Seriously?<shakes head> Oh well, you are entitled to your opinion

Maybe your post should be deleted under rule 14

Isn't that the problem? People get offended by arseholes on the internet.

Don't know what age you are, but all I know even though I have a great husband and family, every day I miss my parents and would give anything to have them back. Good on you op for considering your mother, I know she would not want you to give up your chances at a new life (and that is something you will have to decide on) but like you I would not be 100% happy if I thought my mum was on her own and my husband knew that. You really come across selfish paperwork and it makes me wonder what sort of relationship you had with your mother, wonder what you will expect of your kids when your older????
I think your reply here is unfairly harsh. You know nothing about me or the relationship I have with my parents, which btw is wonderful. I, personally, won't be going anywhere while my Mum is still alive, which sadly may not be for very much longer. Mum having Alzheimers (near-zero short term memory & no recollection of my youngest child) means 2 very serious heart conditions won't be treated. You paint a wonderful picture of life with an extended family, one I would truly love to have but it's not a reality I will ever see. My Dad & I have a wonderful relationship too & I can't see myself ever leaving him either. But they are both elderly, not in good health & I'll embrace every second of the time I have left with them. I'm planning a future for myself, my dh & our kids for when we feel the time is right to leave. Dad may come with us, or stay with us for alot of the year or we may not leave while he's with us. We don't know when we're going & I'm hoping we won't be booking any flights for quite some time.

As for my own kids? Well I'll be honest. If they were considering emigrating I would be absolutely heartbroken. Devastated. BUT I gave them life & I want them to chase their dreams, embrace whatever life has to offer them & if that's living away from me then they'd have my blessing. And a very frequent visitor I'm 35 btw ('til next week anyway).

But that's my situation & I was commenting on the OP's situation which is very, very different to mine. Her Mum is young & they can all follow their dream to live in Canada but they'll have to take a different route to achieve their final goal. It's doable & they can spend alot of time together in the years they won't be able to live together full time.
