[quote=Anonymous]We faced a similar decision twice in two years. We were living near family, and dh had a 9-month assignment out of state, immediately followed by one year in Boston (yes, a fellowship at Harvard). Kids and I stayed put for the nine months, then we all moved to Boston together. I just couldn’t face moving twice within one year. It was fine, but definitely not easy. I felt like I was running on adrenaline the whole time I solo-parented. Boston is awesome and we loved our time there. In your shoes I would move as a family for the one year. Some people in dh’s program came on their own, but they typically had older kids, usually high school, where uprooting them for a year would have been very difficult. With young kids, the move would be fine. [/quote]
