    Unfit? I would say more like you move around a lot and that's it.

    Why would you say that is unfit? Neglecting is unfit. Abusing is unfit.

    No - it might be inconvenient, it might harm the child scholastically but it's not abusive or neglectful.

    Lots of people move a lot because of job transfers and, therefore, their kids move from school to school.

    I agree with JudyKayTree,

    I moved 4 times and my life and that means 4 different schools. I dealt with it though and I never avenged my mom or dad for it.

    Sorry that is not even close to unfit,

    I have had actual cases of a women who was a hooker sleeping with men for money, drank all the time and even used some illegal drugs.
    The courts saw no reason to take her kids away.
