[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I'm disgusted by some of the responses you've already received. You are clearly in a better position to judge what is best for your family in the long term than a bunch of strangers on the internet. I've never been away from my kids for a long stretch of time, but I've traveled frequently for work over the past few years with little kids. I think we all found Skype/FaceTime to be really difficult. Your kids are a bit older, so it may work out better. I "sent" cards with a sheet of stickers inside to my older child (the other was a baby) each day for my first few trips. I'd write them all out ahead of time, and my husband would give her one each day when the mail arrived. For a three month trip, you may not be able to do one a day for each kid, but it's something to consider. Good luck.[/quote]
