[quote=Anonymous]Some people don't have a choice. They work low-income jobs and have to work long hours to feed and clothe their children.

Many others are simply focused far more on their careers than their family and as long as their kids are somewhere safe, they are happy to work long hours. Spending time with their kid sis not a priority. Making money and climbing the corporate ladder is what gives them meaning and purpose and is therefore what they devote their time and energy too.

Still others just want more. Bigger houses, fancier cars, bigger savings accounts, more toys, more luxury vacations etc.

The reality is that kids can grow up fine from all types of families. I have friends who had career driven parents and barely ever saw them  but they still had lots of other adult role models in their lives and they were fine. I have friends from very neglectful abusive homes who have grown up fine. I have friends whose parents were completely detached and uninvolved in their lives and they grew up fine. That is what therapy is for! [/quote]
