Being at my parents would be annoying - I don't like being around my dad. But it would be another way to learn forgiveness and boundaries, as I have around exBF -

My mother is afraid D will wake her up at night (she'll hear her crying). My mother is afraid of her 17,000 dollar couch? (I didn't even notice this) - my mother and father have no furniture barely. They lived in the house 7 years. This is one piece of furniture - D's never gone near it in all the times she's gone there.

My mom said things aren't childproofed. But nothing really needs to be. They have no furniture, and D would spend most of her time in the upstairs space. (I think my mom didn't think that was the case).

It's a big area for bedroom, a bathroom and then a big area - that's all (Upstairs) but it's enough for our two beds, and a couch, TV and play area. I'd have to figure out where to work - probably just using my laptop somewhere.

Yeah, it'd be annoying as heck. But ... it would probably work for a while - a year maybe. And I could pay off debt with the child support money and $1200 per month for 12 months - and put in extra. Even if I leave there debt free with no savings, that would be huge. I'd have my coaching certification and steady work ... but I'd def. use the time to get D stable and me stable and look for a longer-term place for us and pay off debt, try to save a bit - so it'd be worth the hassle for all that. (AND the biggest thing NOT having to rely on exBF)
