When I graduate law school in May, we are moving to the state my parents live in to be closer to them. Drama on this end but, I had this plan before I met DH and he's cool with it. It was something I told him on our first date that I was moving away from this place! He one up'd me by putting a ring on it and coming along too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-99603 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 19:04:15 +0000 lavender 99603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom is 45 mins away (driving) and my in-laws are a 15 min drive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-99126 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 12:25:24 +0000 cheesetomywhine 99126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My FIL lives with us, my DH's mum and my mum are about a 20 minute drive away from us.

It's hard to judge time because Los Angrles traffic sucks but it's about a three hour drive. I love being so close to my parents. I make dinner for everyone every night and we have a big family dinner. It has been so helpful with four little kids and they love playing with their grand patents </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-99063 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 11:42:18 +0000 sulli301 99063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My IL's are about 15-20 minutes away &amp; my parents are about 3 hours away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-99062 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 11:40:43 +0000 Meridian 99062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>IL's are 10 mins away (a bit too close in my opinion ;) and my parents are 30 mins away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-99009 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 10:56:09 +0000 mynoahbear 99009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We live so far away from our parents.

Until a couple of years ago we lived less than 30 minutes (driving) from both sets of parents.

I am over there a lot, and since having my baby, my mom comes over here a lot. I love having my family close! My sister is 20 min away and our boys are 6 mos apart and so far my nephew (6.5 mos) LOVES my son (4 wks old!)! it's so cute. I had moved away from my family for a year after I graduated HS and I could never do it again. We're too close.</p> <p>My IL's though live in NY (I'm in MY), that's where I had moved to and met my husband. I know it's hard for him having his family so far away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-far-do-you-live-from-your-parents#post-98956 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 10:15:44 +0000 Alivoo01 98956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My in-laws are 1.5 hours away, and my parents are 3.5 hours away.
