[QUOTE="Fran, post: 292666, member: 3"] Janet, I have done this one way or another for the last 25yrs. easy child still says that the house in NC is not his home. Well, he is home 2 wks of the year and a few weekends. So we turn down a new job because he might want to visit us twice a year? I don't think so. I feel his sadness but it's a balance between what is best for us just as it's his job to find what's best for him. Look at the big picture. Will he have benefits? Will he have a chance of a good income? Living in Jamie's basement with his new wife is probably not a good thing for you and Tony together. I don't see that working so well. Two women in the kitchen is a recipe for disaster. I knew I was getting into my life of moving when I got married. I chose to not make it a point of contention. It can make a marriage miserable if one wants to move for opportunity and one is miserable at leaving what is familiar. I agree with the others about doing this as a trial and then make a big leap. Work is important for a family's survival. husband and I make that decision together and then there are no recriminations later. There are positive and negatives to those choices. Good luck in your decision. [/QUOTE]
