[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can go to court and fight for full custody but that would be pretty terrible for him and the kids.  Or, just leave the kids with him and take the job.  You can have visits on holidays and summers. [/quote]

Sounds like I have to persuade him to let me go…[/quote]

You mean and take the kids with you?

I mean, speaking as a father, my answer to you would be I support you going and will work with you to give you as much opportunity to see the children as possible, but I would go to the mat in court to prevent you from taking my kids with you. Your choices are to not take the job and remain close to the kids or take the jobs and see the kids sometimes. Those are quite literally the only two choices. The other one where you take your children with you? It's not happening. And that IS a hill I would die on.[/quote]

And WHY would you do that?

Why is that in the best interest of the children?[/quote]

It is not in the kids best interest to move them away from their home and dad.  Mom can go and have visits.  [/quote]
