Sammerz619 answered Tuesday July 5 2005, 3:40 pm: Ok well im very sorry to hear about your parents and your aunt, but maybe you could convice BOTH of your parents to stay in the same town when they move. That way, if your staying with either parent you can still be close to your friends. Also, say your mom gets full custody, your dad would still have to pay a monthly child support to help you guys out...The thing is to remember to always stay positive ok. Keep in touch with Jen by like having her stay at your house every weekend or something. If you want anymroe advice IM me at Sammerz619. Hope i helped.

karenR answered Tuesday July 5 2005, 8:00 am: Don't give up all hope yet. Usually even if they move out Dads have to help pay the bills. So, unless your mom just wants to move you may not have to go anywhere.
If you do move, it doesn't mean you will go far away. You may still be in the same school district. Even if you do you can still visit and call, email, write or IM with your friend Jen.
Basically, don't get upset about things that haven't happened yet. I know you are worrying but try not to get all worked up about things before they happen! :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
katelovesya456 answered Tuesday July 5 2005, 12:13 am: I know its hard, but try and put a positive spin on the situation. If where you live now you're kind of moving apart from your friends than maybe a move would give you a chance to make new friends. As for your best friend Jen, if you dont move far away you can still maintain a close friendship! =) Keep in touch with her through AIM, phone, visits, e-mails. w/e. Remember to stay strong, and be positive through the hard times! Good Luck! -- Kate [ katelovesya456's advice column | Ask katelovesya456 A Question ]

MELiixMARiiE answered Monday July 4 2005, 6:43 pm: First of all: I'm so sorry about your Aunt. I know how it feels..=/..but what I would do is see how far away your dad's moving and then compare it with your mom, because whoever is closer to your friends and stuff then maybe you should move in with them. But if you're still going to be far away.. then I'd suggest just staying in contact alot with Jen. Try calling her every other day, or talk to her on IM/email. And I would suggest making plans with her at least once or twice a month or something, keep the friendship. And I'm also sure wherever you move, you'll make new friends too. Hope I helped!

1. IM.
2. E-mail
3. Talk on the phone
4. Always make arrangements to do something
at least 3 times a month
5. Write letters
6. Never break contact
I'm so sorry about your circumstance. I hate it when I lose my friends. Hopefully my tips above will help you keep in contact with your friend. I know I'm not being too helpful, but it sounds like your friend is your best hope. [ TheHeadHonchoPoncho57's advice column | Ask TheHeadHonchoPoncho57 A Question ]
dancergirl678 answered Monday July 4 2005, 4:09 pm: I know what it's like to move. I lived in texas for 15 years, same house and everything, and a month ago i moved to Georgia so i basically left everything behind! what helped me get through it was just to know that God is in control, and that maybe if you move, He probably has a bigger and better plan for your life. It's alright to be upset about it, but just think of all the opportunites that will lie ahead for you. [ dancergirl678's advice column | Ask dancergirl678 A Question ]
