Not quite sure what you mean , a problem for what exactly.

Specific questions tend to get more meaningful responses

as Zoe mentioned perhaps be a lil more descriptive with what you want to know, schools, jobs etc - but as for kids ages i cant see any problems, the problem i have is my 18 year old is adamant he doesnt want to go now, he did a year ago when we got serious about it an its something we now wish we'd done years ago when he was small, he has a long term girlfriend an college, in a band, loads of friends etc, my 12 year old cant wait, there is a youth club on here that your kids might want to have a look at like my son did an posed some concerns he had and got some really good responses from kids similar ages already out there, which is good as it makes him involved in the whole thing, as already mentioned tho what is it you exactly want to know?

OMG can't believe your 3 children are the same ages as mine!!!!! 17 year old has struggled with it the most, mainly because she has not been able to get a part time job to earn some spends as we have been here on TWP and not allowed to work until we get PR. Also, even though she is a very outgoing confident girl, she has found it very hard to make friends, as by this age strong freindships have already been made .

One thing we did that I can reccommend is we put her a year behind in school. Not because she needed to , but in order to give us extra time to get PR. It would have been twice as difficult having her finished school and still not being able to work.
My 14 year old has fit in with ease and made some nice new friends.

My 5 year old could really have done to start school when she was 4 (like in UK) She is so ready to start, and one thing I overlooked before emmigrating, was how late it is before they start full time school. Kindergarten is only part time for a year so she will be 6 and 1/2 before she is full time!!

There is however so much for them to do in their spare time. It truly is a wonderful place for the kids!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Hi all
Thanks for the reply sorry for lack of info what my concern was with the 17 year old . Will he need to a separate visa from us because of his age.

Mant thanks - jamdon

As long as he's under 22 (and not married or living with anyone), he's considered your dependent child and will therefore be included on any visa application you do. http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Dependent_Child-Canada
