My D14 is in 8th grade, so she has four more years to go, and my job could evaporate in a year. I'm in a very small niche job with no opportunities in this area. I'm hoping H might not want her during the school year (it's a lot of work, he is discovering); or that he might be amenable to switching after two years; or that he takes her opinion into consideration (she would choose to come with me, I believe). I hate that I'm in this position. I've sacrificed myself over and over again for him the past 15 years, and I may have to start putting myself first. It might not be ideal for D14, but hey, him leaving the family was not ideal ever. He made a choice for his happiness, and now I seriously have to consider making choices for my own future stability. It breaks my heart that our daughter is the one who will have to pay the price.
