You know how stressful moves are, and this one with a high school age child too. Focusing on all the BP lifestyle factors could help the whole family transition better. Also, Paleo and Cross-fit is very big with young men. Cross-fit 'boxes' and "tough mudder" challenges are everywhere...exercise plus group support/social bonding might help everyone.
