[quote=Anonymous]We're doing it. Kids will be in 6th and 3rd grade. We stress about the 6th grader, but focus on what we are gaining (MS and HS we are more than happy with, proximity to a grandparents both kids adore, more money for college/vacations/activities, a more comfortable housing situation, etc.). Yes our kids have friends and there will be an adjustment period. But life is full of adjustment periods, and if we do this right, it should also help the kids gain some skills that will come in useful in the future when they will need to adjust to new things. If your DH is on board, do it. I was ready to move before DH was, but once he decided he wanted to do it too, it all kind of came together. It's exciting. It's not like better COL, easier lifestyle, and proximity to family are these abstract ideas that may or may not improve your life. They will! There may absolutely be downsides, but the upsides are pretty clear.[/quote]
