Any tips on how i can persuade people?
down from the sky? asked:
I want to move house, so does my little sister. My dad has no problem with it its just my mum that won’t give in! I keep telling her how much I would like to move, i basically point out all the positives of moving. I’ve even offered to help pay for the move, yet she still says no. Got any tips? Thankyou

Not enough information really. Do we assume that you mum and dad live separately and you want to go live with your dad? Also, are you and sister ‘minors’? Does your mum have sole custody legally? Is dad in another state or close by? These things will help paint the picture because otherwise…you could just do it. Ask your dad to help you move. But I get the impression that you need permission and for some reason mum is being rather selfish about it or knows something you don’t or is just being motherly and wont let go. Has she invested all the time and effort to bring you up and now you want to move? Is she too restrictive with you both?
If there’s no legal impediment and your dad is ok with it you’ll just have to do it. It’s doubtful you will change her mind.
The only possible thing is to try and convince her that you both would like to spend some time with your dad as kids rather than when you’re both grownup and the interaction with your dad will be totally different. Personally I think we need the input of both parents in our lives but naturally that’s better if it’s under the same roof. If that’s not possible then I think it’s only fair that each parent gets to have the opportunity to live with their kids as kids, with everything that involves. Your mother will have a different view. I hope you don’t **** her for this.
