I would want to move away too if I was you. You need to be happy as well. However, you may face legal complications with moving in regards to the custody of your child. So I would research it and your rights as much as possible.

That won't be a problem, my ex won't argue and although he likes having both his boys around he won't try to hold me back I know this for sure. He wasn't very available in the first 6 months after DS was born as his new partner didn't like him visiting us, so he doesn't assume any rights with regard to DS. DS sees his Dad once a fortnight and when he can duck over during work, but apart from that I have 100% custody of DS and he doesn't sleep-over at his Dads although has on 2 occasions.

That would be so hard to deal with and yes I would want to move away too! You are not being selfish you need to do what is best for you! You need to be happy for your DS and staying where you are I don’t think that will happen in a hurry. It is still very important that your DS see’s his dad and the rest of your family so if you are prepared to make that happen then I would move... If you do not have a custody plan in place at the moment I would move before you do otherwise you will have a hard time trying too and they won’t take into consideration why you need to move.

Oh big hugs. I know the feeling. Of wanting to get away and start a new, somewhere where no one knows you or your past, some where where you can build a new life for yourself. If I were you I would go for it. If it will truely make you happy then you have nothing to loose, you need to start thinking about your own well being as it is just as important as your childs. If I had the choice I would totally move away and start a new but financially it's not viable. Atleast by the sounds you won't have any problems with your ex so take advantage of that and be selfish for once. Hope you find peace with your decision.

I have family who moved far away( different state) but now they want to move not exactly back but closer. I do think it sounds like you need a change but at the same time will you be happy being far away from your sister (family) or should you just move far enough to get out of the town but not so far that you wont see family as much. A Trial is always an idea to see just how far you want to move.
