Thought I'd let the lovely ladies of Mumsnet weigh in here.
I am due to move to London (not even central - I'm in the suburbs) on Thursday. We're from a super tiny rural village, which my parents have never left and is pretty much 100% white. Sadly to say, DM is pretty racist. After the events in Barcelona/Finland, DM keeps making teary declarations about me being blown up. She won't visit because she doesn't like multiculturalism and is convinced she'll die in an attack. I am an only child (21yo for reference) and DM has some extreme 'precious first born' tendencies towards me. But she thinks I shouldn't move because 'terrorism/rape/knives/guns/murder/mopeds' and is really putting a downer on me. Am I really going to get stabbed to death in the street?! Or is she insane?? How do I make it to next Thursday without absolutely losing it at her? Have tried showing her statistics but she thinks it's some kind of government conspiracy and won't believe them.
