I'm thinking of leaving my teen daughter for a career opportunity
Did you talk to her about your decision?
Not yet and I would like to prove to my ex-wife how successful I can be.
Just make sure she will understand your decision. Leaving a kid behind can be really hurtful, she may feel abandoned.
Our relationship would be fine because I need to align my career goals with my goals.
Even if she says she understand she might not be ok with it. You should be there for your kids because she might feel pressured to be passive about the situation.
