I think you did the right thing. You are the parent, she is the child. She truly doesnt know what is best for her right now. From what you've told me, her mom has a very unstable situation. Someday she will understand and thankyou for standing your ground.
Re: I am torn between letting my daughter go or not. alonewith2: When I was 15 I told my mom that I wanted to live with my dad. And she agreed to let me go for one year. My mom lives in PA and my dad lives in FL. It only took about 6 weeks, and then I was ready to come back to my mom.
I think it was different for me because I didn't have any friends where my dad lived. It sucked really, and it didn't take long for me to become homesick.
I don't know what to tell you, that's for you and your ex to decide, but you have to make sure that you both agree with the decision. It wouldn't play out well for you if your ex is telling your daughter that she would love to have her live there, but it's you that won't let her....you know, behind your back.
If both of you are refusing, and both of you are telling your daughter this, it will eventually take care of itself when she moves on from this boyfriend and finds someone where you live now.
Re: I am torn between letting my daughter go or not. fly: Not the easiest choice, but after I read the line that she
you and your ex talked and you both decided it was best that she did not move, I think that you are seeing your daughter hurt and want to make her happy cause that's what parents always want, and it is tearing you
But, what is really best for her right now? And the two of you talked and that was with you, right?
