Hi Lainey
Wow our situation seems so un complicated compared to yours! Our kids are only 11 and 7 so dont really have an opinion, the only worry my son has is the fact he doesn't want to wear sun screen every day! My daughter is due to start secondary school in Sept and doesn't want to make new friends only to leave soon after (if we ever get that golden ticket that is!) but is open minded so its just a waiting game for us.
I hope your discussion goes well on Fri !![Smile](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Never in a million years did I think that an EX boyfriend (son's dad) from 15 years ago would cause so much confusion!
![Confused](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif)
I'm trying to be calm about the whole thing. Going to phone agent after lunch to find time scales about having a PR visa and the RRV visa too.
I can see it from my son's point of view, Yes it would great not to leave his friends can stay with his dad, but I think he would be at the nan and grandads more, Wouldn't have to do another 2 years at school in another country, Its hard at 15 ( will be 16 in Jan)
At the end of the day we will need the dads consent to let him go in the first place so im going to take it a step at a time, or we could end up waiting years for a court case to sort things out!
Have a god day every one

If it helps...my daughter who is 15 does not want to go, but has agreed to come and 'give it a go'. She leaves school this year, so timing is just right. As her dad (not that he was musch use as one:curse

[F]LATEST NEWS
I met with the ex last friday. First conversation we have had in 15 years and it only lasted 19 mins!
He said he only wants what is best for his son and if his son wants to go he will sign the stat dec and whats is he going to do at school, and could I make the appointment for the solicitors before the 27th May as he is moving.
I have made the appointment for this Friday and will be a lot less stressed when the ink has dried.
All I have to worry about now is getting through my medical with my sciatica which is next Friday! Can you see a relationship with Fridays!!![Blink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/blink.gif)
Any other September's out there still?

Thanks to every one else too. Its nice to hear from people with the same aim. Its not the same sometimes trying to talk to other friends and family.
And they love to tell you horror stories they hear from other people who couldn't have their visas as they found out they had a bad knee or an extra head or something!!
