We need to move house asap due to harassment and abuse. We’ve tried the relevant authorities and support but nothing has changed and we’re at the end of our tether. It’s a case of now needing to move anywhere for the sake of escaping and being safe.
We found somewhere in an area I wouldn’t ordinarily chose, it’s not awful but it’s not ideal. It could be ours in less than a month. I know we need to do it for safety and security but I’m having doubts about the mindset of accepting anywhere. It’ll be my childrens home but they won’t know anyone, they’ll have to change schools and it’ll be a different way of life. It would also likely be temporary as we’d continue to look for a ‘forever home’ which could result in the same changes happening again in a year.
If we hold on to find something perfect it could take years. We have already been waiting 16 months and I can’t take anymore. It’s easy to move into a bad area but then we have different risks to face. I don’t want my children to be unsettled.
So if you were in my shoes would you accept any house then begin searching for a better home, or wait?
