[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your daughter may feel that you’re abandoning her and cause her to cling even more to the abusive boyfriend and his family.  She may not act like she wants you around, but there is a security in knowing you are nearby.  If she’s 18-19, you really are pulling the rug out from under her with the move you’re planning.

Your new housing expenses may be lower, but you also need to factor in higher travel costs into your budget.  Plan on visiting her and/or nearby family frequently, at least at first, so she can see and know you still intend to be there for her.

I am not sure how much more she could cling to them then she already has, she barely even talks to us anymore and wont come over at all anymore not even for holidays, turns me down every time I ask if she will go out to eat, shopping or movies with us etc, however the girl she was before she would have never missed a family gathering for the holidays, but your right we do need to take into consideration that she might feel like were abandoning her if we move to another state, or I know the boyfriend would use that against us telling her we abandoned her which is the last thing I want.
