Teenagers 😭 - Page 2

Hi I am reading some of the posts on here as we are thinking of making a permanent move with the family.  My son's are 13 and 9.  I wondered how you are getting on with employment and schools etc.  Am I right that you are a teacher?  I am a secondary school teacher and wondered how you have got on looking for a teaching job?

Thanks

Cara

Hi Cara

we don’t actually move over until April, so will get schools sorted out in the new year. I have my own company over here so employment isn’t a problem. 

Good luck with the move!

Hi. I was just wondering how your son got on with his move to Pinoso? I imagine you’ve been on Pinoso a year now and just wondered if you could share your experience?

We are currently planning a move to Pinoso with 3 children. 18 months, 8 years and 12 years.

thank you

Emma

Hi Emmalouise

we haven’t actually moved yet, due to all the delays with Covid. I’m over here but the family are joining me around August. They all can’t wait though. Good luck with your move. 

Ah ok. Thank you 😊 we are hoping to visit as soon as we are allowing to view a couple of homes.

Hi Danny

Please do update us when your son moves over; we moved over in October 2020 with our son who is 14 and daughter who is 8.

Our son is now nearly 15 and although he likes Spain, he's not getting on at all in the IES high school near us, made some friends but not that close so never meets up with them etc; I feel sad for him as the language is a massive barrier plus he has dyslexia, but i'm hoping to find a solution over the summer holidays for him.

I wish there was youth clubs or somewhere he could meet teens of his own age.

Our daughter however is doing great, due to her age etc.

We are in La Zenia area.

All the best, Sian

Will do Sian. It’s been a while and they will be over in August. I say they, as I am bringing 3 boys, 13,15 and 16. They other one is off to Uni! 

I’m sure your lad will be fine. It takes time to adjust, and as soon as he has friends outside of school you won’t see him! 😁

I would like to know about living in Pinoso.

We would like to buy a holiday home there

Is it safe is it great place to live. What will I miss after having lived in San Javier.

Thank you🙏🌈🦋🌺🐘

How did your children get on? :-)

Our son is still struggling to make mates that are like minded; so really feel for him. He's super sociablle, just not the kind who wants to hang around the streets.

Such a hard age.

Many thanks

Sian

Hi Danny 

How did the move go? We are relocating this august and the anxiety has set in lol. My husband is retiring from the military and our sons 18 and 25 are coming with us. They want to start a tyre and car services business (eventually)once we navigate the landscape. We may need to short term rent until house completed so still lots of spinning plates for us. I want the move for my 18 year old to be smooth he’s very quiet and I’m worried how he will settle in? 🇮🇪 Any tips?
