My neices are moving away :(?

Question

This is VERY similiar to someones question that was already asked. But..my brother sister in law and three neices just came back from Florida. Now they are thinking of moving there. And It is because of money, because apparently they make better money over there. And I think it is because my sister in laws cousin she is trying to luer them in. Because if they move there it will be right across the street. So they come home and are all like well if my brother gets a job there we will put our hosue up for sale this week, and sell all the stuff. And be out by the time my neice is out of school. Well.. i think she is being very greedy (and maybe i am too..) she is all about money but here now they have everything and live comfortablely. But anyways, the problem is I am EXTREMELY close to my neices (6 3 and almost a year old) especially the 6 year old. And i cant imagine them leaving all their family because of a few extra dollars. How can I deal with this? please help. I am so upset!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Thats how life is. People come and go.

Answer 2

My family and I moved away from some family about two years back. There was a lot of resent from the other side, and they made a point of telling us exactly how they felt about it. They went so far as to send my mom "hate" notes on her birthday and other things that shall not be mentioned. I've now blocked them from emailing me, and when we receive a letter from them we throw it in the trash without bothering to look in it.

My point is, your nieces are going away to a better place. Don't make this miserable for them - be supportive, and let them know you will always love them. Don't make the mistakes my extended family did - you'll regret it. Go visit, but don't try to hold onto someone who has to go. And don't judge their parents; money is a really important factor in family life nowadays, and if they're trying to give a better life to their girls, so be it.

Answer 3

It's their lives but you can visit.
