Could you get a weekend home in the larger town half way between?

I wonder what her fantasy is of how life would be if she moved "home" though.  Does she think she'd get childcare help from her family?   Are her parents getting up in age and want her help and she wants to help them?  Does she have anxiety about using mass transit at night where you are now?  Does she secretly feel insecure in the city among very accomplished people and think she'll feel better about herself in a small town?  These are all issues to explore before moving back there.

I wish you'd posted in the winter - I would have suggested getting a summer house to see how that goes.[/quote]

It's a good question, and I wonder if we did just try it to so she could see that actually her family live their own lives and she won't be seeing them like we do when we're up there visiting.

She has acknowledged herself that she might find it's not what she was expecting and she may want to come back. She did suggest we keep our current house just in case of that - OP[/quote]
