I have posted before when being in turmoil over whether to make the move with DH and DS, aged 2.
It has always been DH's dream, not mine, but we have discussed a compromise at going for 2 years. I have been through a roller coaster mentally, and have now made a decision myself to give it a fair go (pending VISA - didn't get into Melbourne, now trying for Perth).
Absolutely dreading telling friends and family, particularly my mum, who I am very close to and will not take the news well.
DM has been aware of the situation but is thinking it won't happen because we were rejected from Melbourne. She has no idea we are now pursuing Perth as I don't want her to waste any energy worrying if we dont even get in.
However, if we are successful, how the hell do I break the news?
I know there is a chance we may be rejected again but I am worrying about this so any advice will be appreciated! Those who have moved overseas, how did you tell your parents and how did you deal with the reaction? Thanks

How do I tell my family and friends there is a good chance I may be moving to Oz for a couple of years?
