We've applied for a visa to emigrate to Australia and it will take about 12-18 months.
We've mentioned it to the children so they do know that it is a possibility, but haven't talked about it a lot as we didn't want them to worry about it.
Children are 10 and 8, and I've realised that my daughter (10) is very upset about the idea of going, though she hasn't said anything directly.
Just wanted to get some advice on how to talk to them about it, as obviously our plan of not talking about it so they wouldn't worry doesn't seem to be working!
Any advice appreciated.
