Should I move overseas?

[Sc00byd00]

Single mum here to 17 and a 15 yr old. Struggling financially but work full time in a good job. Had to buy a property (small) after divorcing an abusive partner and kids are with me full time. Considering moving overseas next year to find a better work life balance. Looking at maybe teaching where I can have accommodation and schooling for my then 16 year old. My 17 year old wants to go to Uni and I’m worried that I will not be able to help financially if I stay here. Anyone have any suggestions of where to live? Thought I could sell up or rent my home out. Getting really fed up of struggling so much financially in the UK.

I would start with registering with one of the international schools to see where they might have vacancies for your subject/age group and where your children (or child) can be educated rather than choosing a place and then having to look for work.

Well what do they want at 15 and 17 i would imagine they would be quite opinionated about this. If my mum had tried to move me away from my boyfriend and friends at that age I would of moved out.

CoL crisis is global - I'm in Canada and you should see my weekly grocery bill. Horrific.

Also, we moved province last year and it cost a fucking fortune to move house. If you're struggling now i;m not sure a big moving bill will help i'm afraid.

Before you commit, investigate whether your DD would be classed as an international student at uni, with higher fees, if living abroad.
