[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in the process of interviewing for a job I've wanted for many years. It is a perfect fit for my goals and skills, and it pays well. The issue is my 15-year-old DC. They're now a freshman. They have a solid if small group of friends, and a girlfriend. They've already been moved across the country once by us, when they were six. ———————- See what your kid says. I’m the one who referenced having had a teen in crisis. I would treat that possibility as a known risk and see what I could do to mitigate it. And I’d be willing to not make the move if my kid seemed unable to stomach it. Money, I spent so much money helping my kid bounce back from suicidal depression. Check in with your kid and give them some level of say in this decision. Yes, your kid will move out in 3 years. But when you think about what’s important in life, I bet family well being tops it.[/quote]
