It has been brought to my attention recently that my nearly 16 year old would like to live with his father which is about 1.5 hours away. When I asked my son why, he said he didn’t know why he just thought since he and his 9 year old brother have lived with me since the divorce (8 years)they should live with their dad now. After doing a bit of research I found that it’s a natural process for a son to want to form a stronger bond with their father at his age. I want to do what’s best for him of course I am actually considering letting him live with his father. My dilemma is that his father is not very responsible; he’s 38, still lives with his mother, has a minimum wage job (for now), no benefits and so on…because of this I will not consider letting our 9 year old live with him, but how will it affect them if they are split up?
