Question Posted Wednesday July 12 2006, 3:01 pm
On July 25th my mom and my step dad will be leaving for iraq for a year and a half. My dad and my step mom are now going thru a divorce. My dad is moving us from waterford to clarkston. My dad had 2 kids with my mom, me and my brother. he also has to kids with my step mom, my younger sister and brother. Now he has to pay child support along with bills, house payments and gas money. This forces him to go back to his old job where he has gotten 3 surgerys in the past 2 years because of it. i have the option of west bloomfield or clarkston schools bcuz i can go under either adress depending on what i choose. Im just not sure were i should go. I know it would be so much easier if i went to clarkston and im VERY sick of my friends trying to guilt me into going to wst bloomfield. plus ill only be going to clarkston for two years, ill be ack with my friends in 11th and 12th grade. SO i gues im saying, what do you think i should do, what would be easier? I really would appreciate if you guys could help me.

With your mom, your step dad AND your step mom out of the picture, you might have a rough year..plus your worried about your dad having to pay all those things and him having a bad job..it will be much easier having your friends there for you when you need them..especially in school. And if you do have a stressfull year, imagine having to meet new people on top of that. You might have a hard year with most of your family gone and you need to do something that is easier for you, which in my case is the school with all your friends at. But its mainly up to you.
Hope i helped :) [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

And you would probably keep in touch w/ your old friends, plus it'd probably be more like starting over. Depends on what you wanna do. hopefully that helped a little :] good luck w/ your decision [ BEAUTiFUL_LOVEx's advice column | Ask BEAUTiFUL_LOVEx A Question ]
DancinCutie08 answered Wednesday July 12 2006, 4:10 pm: well i dont know either one but i would go with the more challenging and better school. because is the end friends and distance arent everything its the kind of education you will get. also this is probally very hard on your father will all he has to do know and i would see what he would prefer because if yuo make his like 10x easier by going to one maybe thats what you should choose [ DancinCutie08's advice column | Ask DancinCutie08 A Question ]
