[quote=Anonymous]You are a family. You need your kids to step up due to Dad's absence. Have a family meeting with the teens and dad to strategize on how to make this work. Ask friends for help. Ask if you can reciprocate in other ways vs. 1:1 carpooling. Dad's travel means he can relax and have quiet in the evenings. Also people can relax on planes. He may need to try harder on weekends. Consider buying a meal kit service and teaching your teens to cook the meals. Marley Spoon was the one we liked best. Try to make that a fun/life skills developing experience. See if you can hire a trustworthy pickup service. Also hire tutors or homework helpers. [/quote]
