writes:I am leaving for a summer job for 4 months and my family might be moving over the summer months. My father has a job waiting but we need to see if we can sell our house. The thing is, they are moving far away which means when I am done my summer job I have to return for my last year of University and will not be able to see them until Christmas.I am handling this completely fine. I am telling my family it's a new adventure and that everything will be fine. My mother is so worried and upset at the fact that we won't be able to see each other for over 8 months, and that makes me sad. I want her to see the opportunity in this and not get sad, but rather think about all of the great things that they will have to look forward to when they move.I feel like I just want her to be so happy and I don't want her to get upset, so how can I make the "painful" goodbye at the airport easier? And what are some tips I can give her to let her know it will be fine and that we will continue to keep in close contact? Thank you!

 Set up an internet connection if you don't already have one. Webcams will enable your family to see you and you can chat. Emails are good. Messengers. I speak to my cousin every night in Australia, it's like he's in the next room when we can see each other on the webcam.
