We want a fresh start but..

[Booboo30]

Me and my partner have a child together (and TTC next one) and I have a child from a previous relationship. We have said for a while now we would love to move somewhere completely different and start a fresh new life.
Now I have my child from prev relationship every other night so we share him 50/50. I would hate to separate him from his dad and I wouldn't want to move with out him.

We have our house up for sale with the intention of moving within the same town we are in, however wondering if we should make this step we have been talking about.
I said to his dad we have thought about moving out of town for a fresh start but nothing in stone. He said he has been thinking the same (his girlfriend lives in a different town so I believe he wants to move closer to her) we also agree our son need to go to a new school as this one isn't working out.
What do I do? If we don't move we would have to wait until my son leaves our home when hes an adult, hes only 6 now.

If you can agree on a location with his dad then go for it.

You can't move him away from his dad because you fancy a change though!

Blocks of time were agreed better for the dc when we went to court. Every other day must be quite exhausting for your ds ime.
Distance would be better managed if you changed the schedule.

You could be right, he might find it tiring alternating like that.

When exh and I first split I lived local. I saw at some point dc every day just about. I left and exh was a control freak so 50/50 didn't happen as it should have. I moved twice and at one point was driving 500miles a week keeping to the first court order. Trying to keep up the old arrangement. Final hearing I turned up with 2 calendars with a years schedule on for each of us. Judge agreed. Barrister said blocks of time was much more beneficial for dc.

That's interesting and wow what a trek. Its just the way it's always been for us. We split when our son very young. We never have got court involved but luckily we get on well. I'm worrying about upsetting people but if it was the other way round I wouldn't want to stop him from doing what he wants.
