I moved from the UK to Australia only one month ago and now my dad wants to move me to the USA with him!?!? My parents split and he wants to wisk us away to 'The Greatest Country On Earth'. How do I get him to let me stay? My dad now has full custody of me (I am an only child - my little brother died when he was 7). He's been offered a mega huge job in NY? And he's even narrowed down the schools. Don't get wrong - I love my dad so much and want to get away from my mum desperately but a whole other country!?!?! What do I do? I'm only just settled into my 8th school already! (Including 'elementry' and high school) I want him to be happy but I also want to be happy. I went to NYC a few years ago and lsimply LOVED being a tourist but would hate to live there (don't tell me otherwise - each to their own) I have to make up my mind by tomorrow.....what do I do? My sick great grandma is in the UK even though we moved away from her already. I'm made awesome friends in Australia already and LOVE it here even more than the UK which I love to pieces.

My mum abused me and my past brother and is a crack head. I adore my dad and this job will mean....let's just say he won't have to worry about any financial difficulties any more...AT ALL. What do I do? :(
Well why don't you ask your dad about America, I think you should move
I'm sorry sweety I could tell u so many reasons why u should go but like u said its up to u. plus u can make friends anywhere. whatever u do stay safe.
this is decision you should make on your own...and since that's not what you want to hear, i'll let you know what i would do.
I would go to NY with my Dad. It's obviuosly important to him or he wouldn't want to drag me away from something i love.
He knows whats best for you and he wouldn't make a decision that would be bad for you.
plus you'll luv new york when you reach high school :P
like i said the first time you asked this.. pack, you are moving!!!
Dear Tanzie, I so feel for you. I hope you consider that your dad has your best interests at heart. I think he is smart and loving. I say this because by you listening and respecting your father and going for a good education you are making the healthiest choice. Now maybe when your mom sees you making healthy choices, she will follow suite and want to clean up in a rehab. You can be strong here and insist she do this. You will never regret being a sensible daughter and you will be honoring your whole family by growing up strong and smart. You will be a woman of the world well educated and traveled. You can make a deal with your dad to get to visit your gramma and if your mom goes to rehab you can get his permission to spend summers there. I do so with my heart pray for your family.
Well Tanzie...I say I know that you have made friends in Australia already. And it is quite beautiful there...but....Friends are NOT family. I would have given anything to have my Dad love me as much as yours seems to and be excited to get you back in his arms. You only ave one daddy dear. I think he would be ok with you spending gr8 summers with grandma in Australia. But you do not have all that much time being a kid and having a dad. I say it is quite precious time to spend with dad...and it goes by way too quick. You already have one parent non existent in your life...don't go for two. I think that will hurt your dad beyond repair if you reject him now. HE is your family now. Go to the USA ....I moved a lot and I think it made me cultured and sophisticated. Good luck and I will pray for you dear.
 Heres my question?
 Why would someone get bored with doing IT for 10 years?
