Hi all

We have got a placement for a school whereby my son can begin next week and yet today, we received our final notice of eviction for 2 weeks from now.

My sons father and I are on opposite sides of the fence as to whether or not he should start school now or wait until after we have moved? I have already kept him off a whole two terms when he could’ve started last September…

I feel he would be better off attending school as we have get him prepped for it now; been discussing, got uniform etc and his father thinks we should wait until we’ve moved.

Packing still needs to be done and I have a 1 year old and 3 dogs to also care for…would he be better off in school yet or shall we see if the school can postpone his start date another month?
