Just found out we are very likely moving before our youngest finishes high school. My wife's job is being moved to Dallas or Phoenix. We are pretty tore up for our daughter. It is gonna be tough on her.

Anyone else been through this?

does your wife make more money than you or something?


you don't have to admit it out loud so that the rest of them can hear it, just raise your eyebrows twice if she does

Yes and although tough they will adjust. Life happens and it's okay that kids get to learn this.

How soon before, like the summer before her senior year? If thereabouts you may consider sticking it out a year and stay behind while your wife gets a rental somewhere in the new city. Will be hard either way but I'd probably try to make it work for my child if the financial wherewithal is there.

Went through it every three years or so but my kids were used to it. Has she been in the same system all her life?

Easy solution. Get a rent house for a year and stay down here with your daughter till she finishes school. It literally happens all the time In similar situations. You make sacrifices when you have kids.

I have erased 3 inappropriate jokes because you are so beta I'm afraid they'll push you over the edge.

That would be damn difficult....I think I would just get an apartment in one place or the other so that she could stay in her current school for 9 months.

Any family or friends who would allow her to stick around for a year? I was a senior when Katrina hit, so I'm sympathetic to this. I'd say this is a possibility. She's going to college next year anyway, or Europe if she's going with the gap year. I think it's something you should consider.

Oh, I'm sure she'll manage to be quite asshurt herself.
