[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I can't move.  My housing costs are $1200 a month for a family of 4.  Tell me where in the city I could get somewhere to live for that price and a good school?  I have lived here since long before I had children so it was not a consideration when I saw single.

People who throw around "can't you move" have no understanding of the reality of normal people who don't have incomes into six figures.[/quote]

OP, there are affordable set aside apartments in buildings in desirable neighborhoods.  You have to do your research to find which ones have available units.  My niece, who is working and in grad school, got one on Connecticut Ave. near Murch and Deal.  She doesn't have kids so school is irrelevant to her now.  So, yes, you can actually move if you research and plan.  You need to change the negative thinking and get past your frustration.  [/quote]

Thanks.  I really can't reiterate more that moving is NOT an option.  There are other considerations that I don't wan to go to here but it simply will not work.  Even if it was a possibility I doubt my marriage would do well in a one bed apartment for the four of us and my kids having both parents happy and together is more important than the school they go to.
