When you decide it is time to move,
it is important to engage your children in the
process.
Depending on the reason for the move and the
distance, moving can cause some concerns for children
that parents may not pick up on right away.
It often means going to a new school, leaving
favourite playmates, and a lot of uncertainty
about what the new neighborhood will be like.
Things will go a lot easier if your children
support your efforts to get your current home
sold. It is important to engage the children in
keeping their toys and clothes picked up.
Teenagers may be especially touchy about strangers
invading their space, and may resist keeping their
room in "showing" condition.
It is also important for the family to stay out
of the way when the house is being shown. How
can you get the whole family involved in the sale?
Include everyone in the discussions about the
move and invite the children to participate in
house -hunting trips.
