Helow.... I'm a 18 year old girl and I live now in the Philippines and I used to live in Holland because my mum married a Dutch man and he brought us there.. After few months there, I made lots of nice friends.. I didn't have homesick anymore because people there are always nice to me.. I really enjoyed my life there.. But my father thought that we should go back in the Philippines.. But he stayed there because of his work.. My problem is ... I wanna go back in Holland.. I miss my friends, and I really enjoyed my 1 year and 3 months of staying there.. I convinced my dad to go back there, also my sister convinced him but he doesn't want to because of financial problem (he said), but we don't ask money to him.. we don't spend much money, we're contented on allowance that he used to give to us, besides we're only four in the house.. So i don't think that it's the problem.. and besides he's not a poor guy.., he's just afraid to lose his money i think.. Please help me, how would i convince him to go back in Holland? (link)

Hi there,
I really feel for you being in this situation.
So you have spoken to your Dad so knows how you feel, have you tried talking to your Mum? How does she feel? Would she like to go back?
If he is not a poor guy and he wants to go back then I don't see why he is not!
I know you have already told him but tell him again how you are feeling and that you really want to go back home.
Tell him that if it is the money that he is worried about then you and your sister are prepared to get jobs to help cover the costs (if you are able to).
If, like you said, he is not a poor man then I don't think money is the real reason he does not want to go back. It may be worth trying to get to the bottom of why he REALLY doesn't want to go.
I really wish you luck and I hope that you manage to work out some compromise so that you are all happy!
Take Care
Mel xx
