Maybe take MLC and tat-boy out of the equation...would you at least look around and explore for a job there? You wrote:

Yes, in this economy the job thing is HUGE, I get that.

But, what if W leaves and moves there anyway, without you, what would that look like with custody, etc?

What if you find a good job there and move, and W still leaves?

What if she doesn't?

You do have a very valid point about getting to somewhere to stay put for the high school years.

I guess my point is, would it hurt to just privately explore the job market there (maybe I missed it if you have already, if so, my apologies), even if just so YOU know what is possible? Take a bit of the unknown out of your mind?

And THEN look at things as they are, with more full knowledge of all the ramifications and terrain.
