DD wants to move in with her Dad. Very sad.

[Worried234]

Hi.

My DD is 12 and splits her time 50/50 with me and XH. We have tow other children who live with me full time, and go to XH at the weekends. The 50/50 was DDs choice and we started it in October.
Last night XH contacted me to say that DD wants to live with him full time.
I really don't want her to
I'm heartbroken. She is 12.
Has anyone any suggestions? I'd never drag it through court.
Her brothers are 15 and 8.
All children are XHs.

I'm really upset.

Let her go, a fight about it won't help and forcing her to live with you won't end well. The best outcome is she moves there 100% and ypu trust she will come back and have a re-think and want to be back with you.

Court would be pointless anyway as she’s old enough to decide herself at that age, Have you spoken to her to be sure it’s her feelings and not exes? I can understand why you would be upset though

Speak to her about it. Find out if it is her or ex. If it is her, I would let her go. I should imagine she'll be back tbh
