[quote=Anonymous]Cost of living in this area is high but as a single mom I have to suggest that many things parents absolutely believe their kids need, they don't. When my guy was little we lived in a one bedroom. I have shared custody and slept in bedroom when he was at his dads and slept on sleeper sofa in main roomwhen I had him. Are you sure you need a two bedroom? I used a pay per use cell phone and used my work line for most calls. We did not have cable. This was not the hardship people imagine, we spent most of our time out of the house, at public library, at public pool, at playgrounds... I rented a DVD from library to give myself time to cook in evenings. I will also say if XS wants shared custody, you may find yourself spending the money you planned on "saving" on legal fees. Moving out of area is a big deal in joint custody cases. [/quote]
