[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are your kids not involved in sports or other activities? How do you manage weekend trips every month?? 
 Between our 2 oldest kids , our weekends are jammed with birthday parties, soccer game(s), usually a Scout activity, friends hanging out, and the like.

How absent is your dh going to be? [/quote]

They don't have anything like that here. School is a small private one, so maaaaybe 4 parties a year. No organized sports or Scouts. It's that bad.

DH will very absent working.[/quote]

There is no public library? No rotary type club? What do the families of the kids at the 4 parties/year do for fun?[/quote]

Ride four wheelers and hunt and fish and stuff like that. I want more for my kids.[/quote]
Maybe your kids would enjoy doing some of this?  It's certainly not high-brow, but honestly maybe spending some time out in nature while doing a bit of fishing or hunting would be good for them.  You can certainly expose them to theater, culture, whatever it is you define as "more" IN ADDITION to allowing them to experience a slice of life in the place you currently reside.  OP, the more you comment, the more it seems you WANT to be miserable and place the blame on DH.  Your kids are telling you something -- they don't want to spend time with you because you are sad and depressed.  Either try to make the best of your situation or look for ways to resolve it -- i.e. therapy, looking at alternative living situations, sending the kids to live with family or go to boarding school...[/quote]
