I don’t know your situation and I don’t care. People act like Dallas is at the end of the world. News, it’s only 4 hours from Boston. Best place in the North Texas area with great schools and many national HQ’s, is Collin county, Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney. You must like very hot whether. The area is expensive, not as much as Boston but high for Texas.
Good luck.
4 hours is a lot when you're talking about flying every other weekend and living away from your spouse, and taking the kids away from one parent.
I would never go back to Texas if my life depended on it - 8th generation native of said state . They DO NOT have services or anything close to help there . Health care thanks to the state government is so high most of my friends cannot afford it and you need it with those kids . Medicaid is extremely hard to get they really do have a "pull yourself up by your bootstraps or else" attitude bar none . $12,000 is not anything for a move of that magnitude . You are going to find your self living in the car or the kids taken up . I would really REALLY think this through . I would not do it , especially with those age children .

Leave the kids with the hubby and split then. What you are proposing is just not safe and yes most of us that have been SAHM's have far more than just our HS diploma . Sorry to burst your bubble there but thats insulting to generations of us .

I don't think anyone has claimed it is at the end of the world. If it's a 4 hour plane ride, you're talking potentially almost 8 hours involved with travel, between getting to the airport in Boston, checking in, waiting at the gate, flying, then getting out of DFW, and getting to the home in the Dallas area. And that assumes no delays or weather related cancellations. If you're going every Friday and coming back on Sunday, that's a whole lot of travel time, every week or couple weeks for not all that much time with the family. That sort of travel gets exhausting.
I have a suspicion as to what that language is.
I too noticed the wording, sentence structure and tone of the conversations.
Nothing judgmental, just pretty identifiable.
Clearly not old enough mentally/emotionally to be a fit marriage partner or understand the ramifications of parenthood. If she wants to change her life like others change their underwear, she should have stayed single and child free. She doesn't give a damn about how her move is going to affect the rest of the family. Karma is going to have its way with her if she goes through with this.
I can understand hating the place where you live. I've hated a few places when my husband was transferred there but not enough to take my two young boys and move someplace without him. Do you not love your husband anymore? Maybe you need a vacation or someone to talk to about this. Because leaving your husband to move far away with three young children seems a bit drastic. Do you have family or any kind of support system in Dallas if you need help?
And I'm curious why he is okay with this because most men wouldn't be. Is the marriage on the rocks and he is glad you are leaving? Is he a good husband and father?
Keep in mind just because he says he will pay you support & rent, etc. doesn't mean he will. I would get it in writing. I feel like some of the other posters; there is more to this than you are telling us. Nobody ups and leaves their spouse because they don't like where they are living.
I won't be answering any more questions. Am done.Thanks to all who answered politely. I asked a simple question,yet almost everyone wants an in depth explanation.i didn't ask for advice.
Then why did you post here in the first place? You obviously wanted opinions or suggestions or you would have discussed this with a family member or friend. Everybody gave you good advice but you want to do what you want even if it is not in the best interests of your children which is why some posters called you selfish. Your children's needs should come first when you become a parent.
However I'm sure you don't care and this whole story is probably made up. We find that a lot with first time posters with "unusual" problems.
You dont know me personally so calling me selfish is very funny. To answer your question my spouse agreed on the move even though he doesnt like the idea.Hes going to come and see us every other weekend .Enough said.I regret even asking for help. Most of you guys here are not helpful ..but a bunch of meanies.goodday
How old are you? Are you out of school for the summer and just plain bored because none of this makes any sense.
Found this thread by accident- didn't read through it all, but it's just amazing to me how someone can brag that she is college educated with such poor grammar and spelling. I can't even stand reading anymore when someone types "u" for "you" unless it's in a text message. Oh well; I'm just another meanie.
