[quote=Anonymous]This happens all the time so the idea that this is a terrible idea out of hand is over the top. That said, I think it really, really, depends on the kid/your family. We tried to do this with our kids when they would have been going into 9th and 5th and the immediate, visceral negative reaction was enough for me to abandon the plan. They had moved several times before, but this proposed move hit differently for a variety or reasons (COVID upheaval, prior move that didn't work out). On the other hand there are teens who love adventure and new places and they might welcome the change. They might also be flexible enough to appreciate the concept of a dream job for a parent and savvy enough to appreciate more money. And this is 2023. It's not hard to keep in touch anymore. I think only you and your spouse can really judge how your child is going to react and cope.[/quote]
