^ There are a lot of studies done from everything under the sun, like the age women supposedly start menopause or the age most people have sex, but it's not the gold standard for everyone. That's like saying everyone who's ever moved more than once in their life grew up feeling unstable. I went to 3 different elementary schools from Kindergarten to 6th grade and I didn't feel traumatized or upset by that experience. I just think it's ludicrous to say that ALL children (like Maddox especially) are being hurt by traveling or changing schools. None of us know that. Studies are just that--studies. They aren't fact. They group a bunch of people together and you're supposed to fall under their definition of how you or your family is supposed to be? That's absurd, especially about something like this. If that's the case, then government agencies should spend tax payers' money on better things (like homelessness or poverty) instead of telling people how to live or how to raise their children.

^Well, at least your reasoning proves you'd never be eligible for funding of any serious scientific research

HWBL, usually when people have to resort to insults, it's because they have nothing enlightening to say in return. I will leave it at that. The exchanging of ideas interests me beyond belief, NOT fighting over the internet.
Anyway, have a wonderful day.

 It's only an insult if you take it that way and I'm not even CLOSE to a fighting mood, just stating a fact. And thank you, I WILL have a nice day.
