[quote=Anonymous]I’m not talking about people who occasionally or once in a blue moon make a big change that would seemingly make sense to any rational person (e.g., moving cross country for a big promotion).

Rather, I’m talking about people who tend to quit their job every 2 or 3 years (or flit between jobs and periods of not working), move to some far flung place (usually far away from family and often following a new/potential significant other), go all in on setting up house and then a big dramatic split and moving to yet another new place to reinvent themselves (oftentimes with a dramatic new hairstyle or car or whatever).

While this sounds fun for a single/childless 20 or 30 something, I know women with kids/teens still doing this…and it just seems so crazy. I’m starting to wonder about their mental health, and I’m definitely worried about their kids being uprooted and forced to adapt to new homes, new schools, new people living in their homes, etc. (I know two kids who basically left the flaky parent to live with extended family or friends in an attempt to gain stability.)

FTR, these are well-educated people. They are seemingly UMC.

It’s so weird.

Anyone else dealing with this?

PS - In anticipation of comments saying MYOB, it’s easier said than done when you are sucked into this by family and friends. [/quote]
