The Place of the Waiting Period for a Widow Who Cannot Manage Her Affairs Alone

Question
A 26-year-old woman with young children, in a weak financial situation, with no one to take care of her and her children, living far from her parents' house. Is it permissible for her to move to her parents' house to complete her waiting period?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible for her to move if staying away from them causes fitna and harm, and God knows best.
