No custody issues, we would have been empty nesters in fall If we sell house, I wanted to downsize eventually Opportunity to move to a new area closer to my family. We are in Fl and neither of us has family here. Chance to start new holiday traditions. Chance to remove myself from her BS.
Mostly she’s been pretty good wife mother but I have to take off those rose tinted glasses. For example, last year I bought a car so D17 could drive to school. She had a learner permit, but did not practice and was unsafe driver. I gave D a certain amount of hours and tasks before I would let her take road test. No license means W has to get up early to take D to bus stop.
Well W takes D to a notoriously easy testing center and D passes (but still hasn’t driven on a highway?) I find out because older D is not good with this and snitches. So what’s the result. I have to take time from work to drive with D for the next month until she proves she is competent. I’m mad because she’s willing to let unsafe D drive to school in the dark so W gets to sleep in. Meanwhile, I’m still defending W’s previous accident from careless driving.
