4 years ago my brother decided to move to the USA with his family, my parents have managed to go out there and see him once or twice as have I with my family (hubby and little boy) but it's not something that we can do regularly as it's so expensive.
As Mum and Dad have now retired my brother has asked them to go and stay out there for 6 months!
I can see that this would be lovely for them but I will miss them terribly as we are really close. I speak to them at least once every day and although we now live in different parts of the country I see them a lot, at least once a month. My little boy has a very strong bond with both of them as well and I know that he will miss them both so much.
Am I being selfish?? I can't help thinking that my brother made the choice to go and live in another country and that it's unfair of him to take our parents over there for such a long time??
My hubby says i'm over reacting, just wondered what others thought??
