I have a wonderful relationship with my mother and sister. We are like best friends with our ups and downs. I am 32 and my sister is 5 years older. My mother loves us here because we all help each other out. Everyone works and pulls their own (my sister and I both have children). We take turns on babysitting or picking kids up from school when the other has to work late. Neither my sister or I want to leave mom alone. However, I want to start grad school in the fall should I wait until I have finished or just go ahead and move?

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." If the situation is working well for everyone, why mess with it? It doesn't sound as if you, your sister, and your mother are co-dependent on each other or as if it's keeping any of you from living full lives.
You have a strong support system and if you have children and are about to start grad school, you'll need it even more. Congratulations to all of you for being mature enough to make what could be a very sticky situation work to everyone's advantage.

I can understand that you and you family is close that's love now how about all of you all move into a two-felt apartment you move up stairs and your mother can move down stairs that way you can have your privacy and your mother can have her's.

You never mentioned a man, so I'm going to assume none of you do too well in the matrimonial department. Eventually, one of you old maids needs to get out and learn to interact with the opposite sex for more than just the sex...

that's a hard decision I wouldn't take it lightly, if you're religous pray about it, if not follow you're gut feeling, do what's best for you, your, mother, your children, and your husband if you have one, do you have a place close to home mabey these arn't really anwsers but things to think about

Graduate school will require you to do lots of studying. If I were you, I'd stay put...your kid(s) will be well taken care of and it will be one less stress for you.

You have to go for it. Life is short.
