Is this a dumb idea?

The van thing made me think of this. Just a joke.

questions: will you have a place to stay with your son when you go back? sorry if you already posted that.
3 1/2 hours isnt anything so you could really work it either way.

That having been said, there is absolutely nothing more important than your family. I think it would be a terrible decision to move farther away from your son. You're a grown man and you gotta make your own decisions. But please consider what an impact you have on that boy, and structure your life in such a way that he understands that nothing matters to you more than he does.

this is gold. jiu jitsu is and can be a very life changing thing. it may change your life for the better, but dont let it change your sons for the worst. family is number 1.

I think a lot of people are misunderstanding my intentions... I'm not leaving the kid. I would never do that! but, I only get to see him every other weekend as it is... so I figured I could possibly drive back on the weekends I am supposed to have him and yes I have a place to go. But, I think instead i'll just make a lot more trips out there. Thanks for everyone's advice and watching out for the well being of my child lol... But trust me.. nothing means more to me than that child. I just live, eat, and breath jiu jitsu and like I said I want to compete a lot more and I'm trying to think of what I need to do. Something being hard or difficult or stressful does not matter. I want to do what needs to be done in order to achieve my personal goals

Do it

lol The best answer from someone who has never even posted before!

I mean the Howsteela dude. not you mr Toffolo

Im not sure if this fits the situation, but family decisions maybe should be compared to the oxygen mask coming down in a airplane. If you put the mask on your kid first you might pass out leaving the kid to fend for himself or you could put the mask on yourself first to insure your kid gets his on properly so you both end up o.k. in the end.

got that analogy from a Coffee with Rhadi (Ph.D and Judo beast) Ferguson video. Cant find it, but here is another good one about decision making
