[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two issues - transportation plus the fact that dad is moving so far that the kids won’t be able to do their regular weekend activities. I assume they currently don’t sit around dad’s place all weekend but if one has a soccer game or a meeting with classmates about a group project, he takes them and they return to his place. Same as what happens when they are at mom’s. This could also happen if he moves within the 50 mile radius - it would be more driving for him but doable to not completely interrupt their lives. Which is presumably why the 50 mile radius limitation was put in the agreement for both mom and dad. Disregarding the transportation issue for mom for a moment, it isn’t fair to the kids to ask them to move so far that they will have to cancel games (which is effectively leaving the team) or not being able to work part time on the weekend or meet with classmates for projects or ever see friends bc they will be hanging out with dad and new girlfriend.

Can dad’s girlfriend move in with him? Can dad get a hotel/Airbnb in the kids’ town on custody weekends so life is easier for his kids? Can he wait to move (at least one year) since his kids are so upset about it? If he must move in with girlfriend, can they find a place within the 50 mile radius?[/quote]

OP is not raising these issues.  The issue is transportation to and from Dad's house.  If he doesn't want to do activities during his time that is his choice.  Dad should do the transportation.  [/quote]
