[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it is financially feasible - you have to make it work and you need to pay for airfare to/from all holidays and full summers with Dad. Dad should not pay for visitation when you are moving away. Daughter should stay with Dad as you will be moving every few years and not fair to either.[/quote] We will make it work for visitation either way. But it’s not financially feasible to move back here once we have moved away. We will not be moving again. Thanks for the kind suggestions though.[/quote] Actually it is as the military gives you a final move. You are choosing to take your child away from the other parent and that is selfish.[/quote] Actually, DC is not our home of record. A significant portion would come out of our pockets. Then there is the consideration of jobs after. So again, no it is not financially feasible. I am not “choosing” to move my child. Not everything is black and white. You apparently are not fully aware of all the details (many of which have been previously posted). So again, thanks for the suggestions, I’ll keep them in mind as I work through this issue. You’ve been very supportive and kind.[/quote] Are you really a military spouse as you don't seem to know much? It doesn't matter where the home of record is. At retirement they will move you to where ever you want to go within the US, including HI (friends of ours move there). DC was not our home of record, CA would be and we still moved here. You can move back, but do not want to. You made a choice when you married military and have a commitment to child's father to allow him an equal relationship.[/quote] You can stop now. You don’t know the details and I am not going to explain further. Unfortunately you will just have to take my word for it that it is not financially feasible. I realize that’s going to be hard for you. As I said, more than once, it’s not black and white. But thanks for always going there, it’s been super helpful. [/quote] It is feasible to move back. You are choosing not to and separate your child from her other parent. You may not want to move back, which is ok but don't blame the military or act like they will not pay for it.[/quote] For Pete’s sake! Never said it was the military’s fault or they wouldn’t pay for the move. There are many factors for us to consider and it is not financially feasible for us to move back, irrespective of what the military will or won’t pay for. That fact doesn’t magically change just because you keep saying it is financially feasible. Again, you don’t know what you are talking about when it comes to my particular situation.[/quote] How are you so sure it is not financially feasible three years down the line? Are you planning to mooch off someone else or something that you couldn't do in DC.[/quote]
