Right, just had a look and Port Kennedy is well over an hour south of Perth.

Interesting decor - a sumurai sword and teddy bears

Poor poor daughter, shut out from her family. What a difference to that girl the other day who was worried about leaving her step sisters.

I suppose you can munchins but why is she not living with family? It would class as a private fostering arrangement officially

Thanks Pass, words fail me really I hope this is all for the tv prog because if not how could the relationship between her and her daughter not be damaged if she is seriously thinking of leaving her at 14?, putting him before her!?

Your not a family love if you leave her behind! Gah

I missed the daughter's age - she's FOURTEEN? Good grief, how could you bring yourself to leave a fourteen year old behind?

I detest the snow, especially when I'm sat here at 38 weeks and imagining DH getting stuck at work or unable to get the car out to go to the hospital. EEK!!

Do these people not remember what it's like being 14 . I can't think of a worse age to up sticks and move across the world.

Dreams, maybe that's why the dd lives elsewhere, maybe due to Mum putting her hubby first.

Ooh exciting Mrs Reiver!

Oh Mrs, lets hope it thaws soon then for you!

My Mum left me albeit just for 4 months at 14yo and it was truly hideous and damaged my relationship with her.

It's to turn to sleet later so it won't be around for long

Yes love, they have childcare in Australia. She's pissing me off.

I have a step dc MrsJ and dh is SF to my one, I just cant imagine leaving any of them, does sound as though the may be a problem there already.

He seems quite nice. It would seem that she is pushing it..

Omg - uk vote just now due to weather thought was ginally thinking should take responsibility for her daughter

All the more reason just to put you feet up mrs reiver!

Ok, so no daughter and no job . . . What does she get out of it?

Munch My gran left my mum at 2 and didnt see her until she was 15, mum never got over it. Perhaps that why I`m so grr about this.

lovely extention.

Nice kitchen though

Where they from?

Omg! They have added no value to their house!

Do they not get how selfish they seem?

I found it really difficult and since I've had my dc, I couldn't imagine ever leaving them.

I actually think social services wd have something to say about this - shes a minor and mau live with "family friends"?? wtf
