So I'm a single mom to a two year old boy. He currently goes to a daycare that's super close to my parent's house, which we are currently living in. In December, I will finally be graduating, a year early actually because ive absolutely jam packed my schedule and am utterly determined to get my degree. I'm also currently working 3rd shift which makes me feel so disconnected from my son and family. My goal is to move to a city that's about 30 minutes away provided I can find a good job out there. So graduate in December, find a new job in the new city, and then move a few months later, though I have plenty in savings to be able to move sooner if I wanted too.
If I get a good job and move, I will obviously have to switch daycares for him. And change the plans of the school I was having him enrolled in (a Montessori school as the public schools in my current town suck). He loves his teachers and his friends at daycare now, although we've had some issues with bullying/biting on both happening to him and him doing it. I've been told that's fairly normal I think. I'm worried that such a big change all at once, a new house and a new daycare, will royally mess with him. Acting out, being clingy, biting and hitting, and whatever other behaviours that could happen.
But I don't want to stay stuck forever. I have a lot of issues I won't get into here, but even just from a year ago I have grown so much it's insane. I'm so proud of myself and all that I've overcome and what now is in reach for me. But. I feel like staying in this town I'm going to stall out and regress in any progress I've made on myself which also would affect my son negatively. I have plans to get a children's psychologist to figure out how to talk about what happened between me and his father(who's not involved and very violent and manipulative) so maybe if we do move that would be a good time to do so, as he would be 3 by then.
