My mom
Ok well, my dad got offered this job in Philadephia and he took it. And we were all excited me expecially because i really want to move but i think my mom is selffish because, she doesn't want to quit her job she doesn't even like to move up there with him and therefore i can't go because we can't afford it. What should I do? Is she really acting selffish?

Your moms not being selfish. She could be afraid to move.. or she just could not want to leave her job. Your mom might really like her job and get good money from it with a certain schedule that she'd never find anywhere else. Or she could just love her job and the people she works with and doesnt want to be torn away from it. She might feel that it should be part of her decision too, to move.

Why is your Dad's career more important then hers? Why should your family be randomly uprooted just because he wants to take this job? She isn't being selfish, neither is your Dad from what I can tell, they are just working out what's best right now. They know what is best and it is for them to decide, not you. You might want to go because it's new and exciting but there is a lot more to consider then that.

yeah in some ways she is but in a way shes not cause why should she give up her job just to move.

if moving is the best for your family then yes i think she is being selfish. but if you look at it through her perspective, there might be a lot of good things in her job so she might not want to leave it if she cant get anything better later. but in general i think she is bein kinda selfish

Well, your mom is thinking more for herself but then again, you are thinking for yourself as well. In a way you are both being self-fish. Try sitting her down and talking to her. Tell her why you want to move and listen to why she wants to stay and not quit her job. Research and see if there are any jobs like hers in Phili and explain she can have what she has there in Phili as well. Being understanding to each other and try to come to a compramise. Just remember, don't start pointing fingers or else things will turn out much much worse.
