I don't.Obviously this goes out to the dads. I sometimes feel like I'm letting my family down by not being home as much due to the late hours we have to work. It's a passing feeling that doesn't linger too long. I wish I could be home more but the offset is providing for the family through my paychecks.
Anyone else get that feeling?
You da man Bomber, biggups to you for being there and doing what you had to do for the good of your family and the sacrifices you made, mad respect to you dude.I'll present it from a whole new angle,..I was both Mom and Dad to my daughters after Mom passed away when the girls were aged 12 and 9,..yet I kept working full-time, and bending the rules to participate in my girls extracurricular activities...it required alot of late nights (after school stuff, phone calls, homework checking), and early mornings (laundry, housework, making lunches) in order to make sure that they did in fact thrive,..and they did indeed....It probably took a dozen years off of my life, but I'd make that sacrifice in order to see them be a success
You're a good man and I'm sure he knows.The hardest thing is trying to balance work and family. I try so hard to be a good Dad but long hours make it very difficult. I pray that my son learns that sometimes you must sacrifice what you want in order to be a provider.
I feel your pain. I am in the same situation but I rationalize it much differently. The less my kids see me the better. I am the only one working in my house. I have a four year old and a 2 year old. My boys love and cherish me. I also try to make every second I have with them count.Obviously this goes out to the dads.
