Our house is too small. Christmas has confirmed it for me. I've had enough.
We have been tossing around the idea of extending but tbh we still wouldn't end up with the space we need and it will be a massive upheaval.
So I've been playing around with figures today and looking on Rightmove and we can move to a much bigger house sooner than I thought.
DS1 is eleven. He has always said he doesn't want to move, but he is now having a proper foot stamp about it. He is very attached to this house. It's next door to my parents and across the road from my sister, we have great neighbours with similar aged kids, and he doesn't like change at the best of times. Even the fact that he would get his own bedroom hasn't convinced him.
I'm not actually going to let the whims of a preteen dictate where we live, but he's really resistant. How evil is it to ride roughshod over his feelings and move house? Will he hate me for ever?
I don't tend to hang about once I've made a decision and I'm all for putting the house on the market NOW. AIBU?
