[quote=Anonymous]My maternal grandfather wanted to move away from the family business and fledge his wings. His father shot down the idea. Grandfather always had some regrets, and that influenced how my mom viewed our mobility. My sibling and I both had the freedom to move around, though I did that before settling down and have kids. Once we had kids, we all recognized that it's time to move closer. In our case my parents moved to be near us. I guess all that to say, it's much harder to move away from family when you have little kids. If there's a strong pull, i.e., a job opportunity that's impossible to pass up, or strong push (boundary issues with family), then the calculation would be different. But in your case, if I understand correctly, you don't have clear jobs lined up, but a desire to move for better schools and more space. Have you searched for these criteria extensively near your family? Ultimately, you need to do what's best for your nuclear family. [/quote]
