DesFIP with all due respect, and I do respect you a great deal, you're not reading what happened. Oh perhaps I am an ineffective communicator, that may be the case as well and if so, I apologize. pulled away? Hardly, it is my understanding he begged to come and was doing horribly where he was with his father (note also a different state, so it's not like she brought him away from some joint custody arrangement). Allowed to return home? He's begging to stay, that I know for sure. bad weather? Rain storm, yes rain. And it does cause accidents, that's true. But if everyone stayed home in the rain in New England, nothing would ever get done and I am sure she was trying to help the man she considered to be a partner, as she had a job interview. I would have done the same in her shoes assuming the rest of this crap was not a factor. In short yes, she brought her troubled kid along while she moved to pursue a relationship. 9 months, 9 weeks, whatever, that's a judgment call that is clearly up for debate as posters have come down on both sides of it. I do think the added factors of being friends with him in the past, as well as maintaining her separate household and finances were a practical way of handling this situation.
