We will be moving to a new state this summer where my 12-year-old son will be going into seventh grade. He does not deal well with change. Can you give me some suggestions to make this move easy for him? -- Moving
Answer: After you have purchased your new home and selected where you son will be attending school, be sure to take him with you when enrolling him in the school. Make sure he gets a tour of the school so he becomes familiar with where lockers, the gym, restrooms and classrooms are located.
Equally important, try to find a neighborhood buddy for him who will be attending the same school. And be sure to find out if there are any summer programs at the school.
