As long as it isn't putting your child in a bad place, e.g. bad schools, worse chance at life, I don't see why not.  Why not get married first?  Will your parents let you back if you decide it isn't right?

As a whole it is not too good because Georgia is one of the lowest ranking states, but with that said it all depends on where you move and what school your child goes to.  Georgia has some really good schools, and some that are not doing so well.  The HOPE Scholarship is really good if you child maintains a B or higher average in a Georgia high school and decides to go to college in Georgia. \n\nBeing that I graduated from a Georgia high school, I feel that it is pretty much up your child to make the best of what's given to them.  The education system can only do so much the rest is up to the child.

I am from Nashville and have raised three children here. The cost of living is not bad and there are jobs everywhere. Kentucky however has a very high unemployment rate.Unless you are a farmer I would suggest Tennessee.

It depends on the wording of the court order.  What does it say about reasonable accomodation for visitation arrangements.  Also, take into consideration what is best for your child.  Will it take a little accomodation on your part to make the switch feasible?  If so, isn't a little compromise better for the environment of the child who will see his/her parents working together rather than against each other?

well i moved in with my boyfriend after knowing him for 2 weeks. But the bad thing is that i moved 100 miles away from my family. But we are still together and been dating for 2 years!  So you are the only one that can make that decision. It could work, but then again living together so soon could cause problems. I say take a chance and go for it. Oh yea and I was 17 when i moved out!

Depends on the state.  Many states give the children some say in where they want to live after they turn 12.  If there is a reason why your father doesn't have custody (i.e. abuse) then that may prevent you from moving.  You should discuss it with both of your parents to find out if they agree.  If they both agree then it shouldn't be a problem.

if you are happy where you are..stay.  Change is always good as long as you are able to supoprt yourself and your child.  Give it a chance...plus there are more jobs in your related field where you are now.  New people, new job, this can be scary but not bad.  I admire you for having the strength to do it in the first place.  Stay where you are for at least 2 years and then decide if you think things where you are could work to your advantage.  Good Luck!

Before you even consider moving , make sure you can take care of yourself.Obviously it is to your advantage to stay at home as long as you can, go to school-get a job- then worry about entering the "real world".  Its a jungle out there whether in KS or In or whereever -be prepared

A sick member of the family that needs to be cared for is one of the top reasons. Or if you have a special needs person in your family would be another reason to be compassionately relocated. I've included a few sites that you can go to for more info

I hope this is purely rhetorical.  If you're really serious, and can afford the move, AND continue to live there, I would start with a visit to each.  I believe that to be the only way to make a realistic decision.

My crystal ball says yes.  Also you will have 2 kids, live in a white mansion in Florida.  You will have a rotweilere named Buster and a cat named Ruby.  Also, your mother in law will move in with you, but don't worry, it's just until her house is remodeled.  \n\nDon't forget to send your two boys to a private school--things can go terribly wrong if you send them to public schools.  Be careful for their safety.  If you ever wonder "Do I really need another peice of clothing" the answer will always be yes.  Everyone's going to have their eye on you...Your Vin Diesel's wife.

Well as you say that your dad already has a house built in Thailand it should not be too hard for your parents to move back to Thailand. Your father seems like a very qualified person so I am sure with some looking he will find employment. If your dad is willing to do this I think it would make your mom a lot happier, but on the downside would she be depressed about being seperated from you and you her? There is a possibility it is a no win situation. I hope that something can be resolved where all of you are happy. Good luck!

I live in GA and as a Georgian,I'd say it depends on what you want. Cumming is roughly an extension of Alpharetta but not near Atlanta like Alpharetta which translates to less time spent in traffic,less noise,more privacy since it's near atlanta but not Atlanta.You get good schools which are not overpopulated and are cheaper.Cost of living is also cheaper in Cumming.\n\nAlpharetta is Buckhead in this part of Atlanta. It's more expensive and since the place is a hot hub for professionals and new graduates,housing is expensive since there is way too much demand for houses. An average house with six rooms is 450K which is only rivaled by houses in Buckhead. There's more traffic since it's on I-285 which leads into I-85 which either way you see it is a lot of traffic and a lot of driving. It's nearer Atlanta hence the traffic and you're in the city. The schools are top notch,but very expensive.One of my professors said he paid 3K for a term at his children's school per head and he has 3.\n\nSummarily, they are pretty much the same but Cumming is much better and is straddled by Gainesville and Lanier Islands on one side and you can get your shopping and city thing done there without driving into Atlanta

Deciding which parent to live with is never an easy decision, first try to come up with a pros and cons list, that might be a good first step. Secondly, decide what it might be like, a week, a month, a year, after your there, deciding if you can adjust to another surrounding is a hard, so give it some thought. Personally, I would move to Florida, just because, depending on the area, can be a really enjoyable place to live. Also, try to figure out as much as you can about where your mom lives, and what it is like there, what you can do for fun, what you could possibly do for work (not sure how old you are but ohh well...) and so on.....I hope I have given you enough to think about and good luck with your decision.

She will have to prove to the courts that she and the daughter would be better off moving. Most courts won't look kindly upon her picking up and moving without a guaranteed job wherever she is moving to. Tell her to get her ducks in a row, then issue a written 30 day's notice to the father outlining the wheres and whys of the move. If he fights it, she'll at the very least be equipped with a good arguement.

Sounds like a fabulous opportunity for your daughter. Go for it.
