I'd like to try to dissapate some of the nastiness which threatens to
cloud what is basically an interesting discussion of Karl's proposal.

Sometimes a preson must move across the country even though they have
good resons (such as children) to stay put, for example when
one's company relocates.  Parents can face a difficult choice between
staying (and perhaps remaining unemployed) and following their job.
Unfortunately, this happens all to often in today's difficcult economic
times.  We should not demonize such people by calling them pigheaded.

Note that the reason for the move does not necessarily have bearin
on the discussion of whether the parent who has moved should pay the
full cost of the children's transportation.
