[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not perpetuating anything. I never said dads aren't capable. But biologically, little kids want their moms. I'm not saying OP shouldn't go either just that it's different from dad leaving 3 months. It will be harder on the kids with her gone than him, that's just how it is with kids. [/quote] That may be how it is in your family. As a teacher, I know many families who truly co-parent, or where the dad is the default parent. The kids in these circumstances are connected to their dads in the same way your kids are connected to you. [/quote] +1. I agree with this. My DH is just as involved as I am, and he is every bit as important to the kids as I am. OP, in the grand scheme of things, 3 months is not a big deal. All over the world, parents of both genders have to do things like this. [/quote]
