Hello everyone!
I am in need of some opinions. My SS has decided he wants to live with us, while SD is going to stay with her mom. They live 120 miles away. We currently drive 65 miles one way every other weekend to pick/drop them off at a set location. So, when SS comes to live with us we will be making this drive EVERY weekend so SS can be with BM on her weekends, etc. Is anyone else in this situation? Everyone tells me there has to be a better solution to keep from driving 130 miles every weekend.
Thanks

Hmmm..ok I'm trying to think logistics here. I"m coming up empty! Darn.

Ok...what about since your son decided to live with you, she comes to pick her son up that wknd...that way you're both splitting the driving. It might be somewhat better to set it up to where the mom has both kids one wknd you guys the next...but yeah unless she agress to split driving that would mean you drive every wknd right?

i'm wondering how you could do it..my brain is shutting off today lol
