[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not at all saying this to be snarky, but maybe its time to take a break from posting here. You started a similar thread a few months ago on this exact topic, in addition to probably a dozen others over the past year or so. The same drama ensues with every post but also people keep giving the same good advice. I think at this point you’re not going to find anything insightful here. There’s no shame in sending the kids to live with their dad and presumably your husband won’t be stationed overseas forever. Like others have said, it could be tough to get custody modified in the future but I don’t think it’s insurmountable if you’ve established that you can provide for them. [/quote] I'm really not sure what drama you're referring to. I've received good suggestions (and plenty of snark, obv) and it's been helpful for me to read other perspectives. [/quote] By drama I meant the dramatic replies of people judging you and suggesting you’re a bad mom. I do think people have given good responses but they gave you good advice last time too. So my point is simply step away for a bit and focus on making the best choices you can for your kids. I can see that you’re in a tough spot and all of the options seem equally hard. I’m rooting for you, but you need to keep moving forward and not get bogged down in DCUM-land. Linking to all of your previous posts to remind you of the good advice. I’m saying all of this as a single mom, so I know it’s hard. Not minimizing your struggles at all. http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/678668.page#11794336 http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/653656.page#11189879 http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/671949.page#11625127 http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/656590.page [/quote]
