[quote=Anonymous]I've moved twice for DH's job, kids have moved once. This past year he had a new opportunity out of state and we decided he would commute instead of move again. Kids are plugged in here and we didn't want to uproot them as we think they've struggled socially post-covid and they're all pre-teens/teens which is an added layer of stuff. DH travels M-Th about 3 weeks a month. It's not ideal, but I'm trying to make space for him to pursue his goals while keeping our kids settled. Our kids miss their dad, and there are times I really miss my husband, but we're doing the best we can and the longer he's in the role the more control he has over his calendar. All that said, if you're going to move your oldest, entering 9th is the time. But it's hard to feel good about that when your kids are vocalizing a hard no. Ultimately, I can't champion one choice over another. They're both hard and sometimes the "answer" isn't clear until it's behind you. [/quote]
