[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly? I would pass on the assignment, up to and including resigning. I know it's not what you want to hear, but there's no way I'd leave my kids (2 and 5) for three months. My DH did a 3-month stint overseas when our first was 2, and his relationship with DC hasn't really ever recovered. It has made me extremely conservative about spending time apart as a family. I feel for military families who deal with deployments -- it is incredibly tough.[/quote] I appreciate your feedback. You're right that it isn't what I want to hear. Passing on the assignment simply is not an option. Looking back on it, what could your DH have done differently to keep the bond stronger? That's what I am looking for.[/quote]
