I highly doubt this. I have plenty of family members who travel 40-60 miles each way for work everyday. Others who work Mon-Thurs up state and come down on the weekends. That doesn't mean you need to follow her or not fight for your kids to stay in the same state... but the argument needs to be based in you having employment - not you complaining about how hard life is.

Which is it ATL. I get that you are upset and scared but some posts you take full responsibility for your unsteady employment and other times you don't.

I'm not a fan of using the word "gaslighting".

Perhaps its true, Perhaps its your perception. Either way it doesn't matter. Folks here are giving you strong advice about getting a job and a lawyer. It's up to you to take it and start focusing on it.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.

Love at all costs because you are loved well.
