Here goes. I just need to get this out. I am a single Mum and have been since mid last year. I have a daughter who is 2 and a son who is 4. They are both beautiful children who are both loved and feel safe in two separate homes. They go to their Dad 50% of the time. There has been an opportunity with my business of moving 45 minutes away. I no longer like living where I am living, in this town, the only reason I reside here is because of my ex-partners work, in which he cannot get a transfer. I feel unhappy here and where I wish to move to is by the ocean, something that I truly resonate with. Issue is, our son starts Prep next year and he's been accepted into a good school here. The ex wants him to go to school here. I would never take our children away from the ex, we work well together and do our best for our children, regardless of our differences (actually what has happened with us is never discussed). So I don't see our children 4 days a week as it is, how on earth would a Mum not see them 5 days a week whilst our son went to Prep? I've spoken to some Mums that have their children on weekends only and they are with the Dad the rest of the time. Is it just a fear that nobody ever really talks about? Is it conditioning that the Mum should be with the children most of the time? I am deeply saddened but I have to move, I am so unhappy here. I have complete trust 100% that our children would be absolutely happy and safe and fine with their father. He is actually brilliant at being a Dad. So, am I a bad Mum for feeling this way? For feeling that I want to live by the ocean, have a good life and be happy and focus on my business as well? Do other Mums ever feel this way or are there other Mums out there that are currently doing this? I just need to know really. I've made my decision to go. Like I said, I can't stay here. Thank you for listening to be ramble.
