Re: Long Distance Parenting Plan

LB: "As for SL.. she's not a stepparent, she's not a PARENT, she's not even remotely qualified or experienced to have an opinion. Period. Why she's here boggles my mind quite frankly. As a single, childless person THE last place I'd be is on a divorce site. MUCH better things to do in life than hang out here and give advice about crap one known next to nothing about."

************************************************

While I'm not generally a SL fan (and I believe she's not a fan of mine either....) she DOES get to have an opinion.

Everyone gets to have an opinion on this issue.....not just other's who are involved or potentially involved with move aways. In the end, OP will try to fight for what she believes is right for her family. It's 'normal' for her to tend to focus on what is advantageous to her. I think it's reasonable for her to also hear 'the other side.'

Like SL, I have no personal experience with possible move aways. I still have a valid opinion on whether I believe they are right or wrong. I think if you make a baby with someone, and commit to living in a certain area to raise a family, you should do everything humanly possible to keep that commitment. The RIGHT thing to do is still the RIGHT thing to do, even when it's more convenient to do something else.

Personally, I think many places in RI are nicer places to raise kids than many places on LI. That doesn't mean I would chose to move a child away from their other parent....it means I would have planned where I wanted to raise my kids BEFORE I started having them. For me, being close to extended family was VERY important. I chose to settle near that family instead of having kids elsewhere then claiming I had to move to be near family when the marriage went south to justify a move. That doesn't apply directly to OP, just to many of the move away threads here.

I'm not saying that I never think move aways are the best thing to do....so much depends on the particulars, like the NCP's involvement. In this case, the safety of the child with NCP is also a concern
