It appears the father has a choice here, stay and continue the equal access with the child or move and become the long-distance parent.  Why should the parent who isn't moving be the long-distance parent? 

Before the father moves away, a judge probably won't let him take the child with him, he needs to get a long-distance parenting plan in place.  He will probably get most of the school breaks, the major holidays will still be split and he will probably get most of the summer, but not all.  The other parent has a right to a summer vacation with her child.

Even if this was for work, he still would not be able to move the child away from the other parent.  Just like the other parent would not be able to move the child away from him.

You are a stepmonster. Do you think you know what's best for this child?  He has a mother - get your kid.  You're a horrible individual.

I'll ask you once to stop your personal attacks and baseless accusations. You're welcome to express your point of view, but there is no need for these kinds of comments. They're unfounded and they contribute nothing to the subject under discussion.
