[quote=Anonymous]I think it really depends on your kid and where you're moving. We moved to a new city when I was 14 and I moved into a school system where the kids had all been together since middle school. It was hard to integrate into social dynamics that had years to "set" but after the first semester or so, it was fine. I wasn't a kid who made friends super easily, but it wasn't any harder than it ever was to get to know people. I was never reluctant about the move, though, even though I was leaving a pretty great friend group at my school. The town we were leaving was small and conservative and we moved because my mom got into grad school in a college town. I missed my friends, but I got to grow up doing stuff I loved (music, art) rather than stuff I didn't like (4H, sports).[/quote]
