[quote=Anonymous]I'm in the process of interviewing for a job I've wanted for many years. It is a perfect fit for my goals and skills, and it pays well. The issue is my 15-year-old DC. They're now a freshman. They have a solid if small group of friends, and a girlfriend. They've already been moved across the country once by us, when they were six. I wonder how rough the adjustment would be for DC. New school, new kids who have already formed their high-school social groups, a different state's curriculum, the new culture of a larger and very different city from DC. That said, the new city itself is highly appealing. I don't plan to bring this up with DC until I'm deeper into the interview process and am sure that the job would work out for me. But I'm very nervous about how to broach the topic with him, or whether I should just give up on this dream for the sake of keeping him where he is through high school. (The job wouldn't wait for me; it's now or never.) Thoughts?[/quote]
