My ds is 13 nearly 14.We have been renovating houses and moving for years but ds has never changed school/friends and we have always been in the same location just different houses.We have been in rented really close to his school (2 mins!)since september but have now seen a house we like which is about 10 mins walk to school but in the opposite direction to his best friend who also lives v close to school in a road where houses are 900k ish!!!!So basically he would be slightly inconvenienced and would need to get a bus home from the skate park which he does atm but would mean an extra 3 or 4 stops.He ahs really lost it and says we need to stay here where we can't afford a house with out a big mortgage.New house is lovely mortgage free and dp and I love it.We stayed in this area to get him into the best school even though it cleaned us out financially and now we can move literally 5 mins away he has kicked off and really taken the shine off our excitement.I want to talk to him about this without a row but how do i explain to him that its not all about him anymore and we want a bit of a life?He only has 2 more years at his secondary school and will then go to college which is across teh road virtually from teh new house but he doesn't see thsi Bloody teenagers!
