[quote=Anonymous]13:43 pp here and just wanted to add if your husband really wants your kids to feel like they grew up in the same community, that kind of consistency, I just want to throw out that I 100% feel like I grew up in one community my whole childhood despite the move. There will still be a lot of consistency for your child especially since it sounds like you’ll stay at some of the same outside school activities. Do get her involved in some teams or activities that are directly linked with that school when you make the move though to help make those connections. One thing I think actually ended up being good but was probably a hard decision at the time was my parents didn’t try to keep us with one leg in the other community and one in the other. We also left the home daycare I’d been at for years when we moved and I started at the after school care at school for example even though they probably could have pulled off keeping us there since it wasn’t actually that far. Yes i remember being sad to leave my old caregiver but I really think it was for the best to fully integrate right away. I actually asked my mom recently why she did that (so random but was working on childcare decisions for my own kids). She just said that it wasn’t as convenient and seemed best to start our own new stuff. As I mentioned we were still in other things that were the same but not directly related to that neighborhood. Not sure if this makes any sense! [/quote]
