re: Moving before daughter's senior year of high school

I went through a similar situation when I was in high school, only I was a junior and I have an older brother who was 2 years older than me. My dad got a job before my sophomore year and my brother's senior year, so my dad moved by himself for a year to let my brother graduate. It was tough on my dad being by himself for a year, but like others have said, you make sacrifices. If it's that big of a deal to her I would try to work out something to where you could stay and let her finish.
For me, I had two years to adjust and make friends. It was rough at first, me being an introverted person, but I eventually got used to it and still kept in touch with my friends back home. And I eventually moved back home to go to LSU.
Take it from me, when you're a teenager and you have to move away from your friends, it can be heartbreaking. Senior year means everything to you when you're a kid, even though later in life it won't. So I would just have a discussion with her and if it can't be worked out that she can stay for a year, just be as sympathetic as possible.
Good luck![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)
