Absentee spouse and father feels closer to the kids  because YOU spend so time with them.  WTF? [/quote]

Try reading the entire post rather than look for pieces to pull out and pounce on.  I repeat. he works long hours, BUT MANAGES THE FAMILY TIME PRETTY WELL.  He is in no way, shape or form, an absentee spouse or father.  Would we love it if he was home by 5 every afternoon - yes!  But that just isn't our reality.

And yes, because DH and I talk several times a day about all the cute stuff the baby did and what's going on with the older DCs, even while he is away, he feels connected.  That does mean that is his ONLY interaction with us.  Geesh, people.

This is our situation too.  My husband also feels closer to kids because I am with them and knows what happened throughout the day.  He can hear firsthand account from me, not from a piece of paper. [/quote]
