Lee-
I know you. I DO know you. Your pain comes through so eloquently that my heart aches for you.HOW FAR AWAY does this man live? Just because your son and your ex have both suddenly decided that they should live together doesn't necessarily mean that this is the best course of action.
Try not to panic. Proceed with caution. Don't agree to ANYTHING until you've had time to calm down a little - don't let them take advantage of your pain and fear to get your son moved out fast, while you're still reeling from such a terrific blow. WHEN and IF you agree to this move, it should be done gradually and under YOUR TERMS.
I don't know enough about your situation to make many specific suggestions but is it possible for you to say that you're not going to allow your son to change schools in the middle of the year?
If you stand on that, it will give you a little time to think. Don't let anyone guilt you into a sudden decision.oh Lee, we can't do much for you out here in cyberland but listen and offer our support and prayers - and try to help each other around the landmines in this long uncertain journey.
((((Lee))))
