My mum has lived in Australia for 22 years now, and we have a rocky relationship. But at the same time it's one I want to maintain. I need her to be my mum. The relationship took a lot of rebuilding.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My mum and dad aren't together, but she plays a massive part in my life. We have deep conversations: I tell her where I need support, where I feel she's lacking, and I support her with whatever she needs. I understand she won't be here forever, and I want no regrets.
To live in Australia permanently is rather like going to a party and dancing all night with one's mother.
It doesn't matter how old you are or what you do with your life, you will never stop needing your mum. And I will never stop needing mine, so thanks, Mum.
My real mother is a survivor, very strong and respected by the people who know her, but our relationship is not easy - but then, it was never going to be.
My mum wants the best for me. And I like having my mum around me.
I love my mother dearly, but it wouldn't be suitable for me to live with her all the time.
I want to make my mum's life and my life safe.
I'm just delighted that this woman I love can be a mum again.
I'm trying hard to keep my Australian accent. My mom would disown me if I didn't.
It's been a long while, but, thank God, now I've been able to get my mum a house.
