[quote=Anonymous]I love my family in CA so after a decade on the east coast we bit the bullet and moved a 20min drive away from them to a more expensive area on west coast. Aside from cost of living this is great — we see each other at least 1-2 times a month but each go home to our own space, they are incredibly helpful with our kids and dog, and we can help them as they age. If I had done this right after college though it might have worked less well because it would have stunted my adulthood and boundaries to have so much family time and help right away. We also live a short 1-hr flight away from DH’s parents which is also great because we enjoy seeing them but they help out a bit less and this way the families don’t feel competitive about our time on a regular basis.
