DH departs with his work (diplomatic) to work abroad. i had folowed and work with him in the past but since DC arrived we were relocated back home. While I am exploring potential to join him soon, we are aware that for the moment is best to stay back because the country he is going to is rather difficult and outside eu, to live with kids.
My question is for mums outhere that have similar experiences, how do you deal with dad being away and how do I work this out with a 5year girl that adores daddy? also how do i prepare her for a possible relocation to a foreign country, language and school?
we have been traveling for work a lot and she is "accustomed" to us being away but we see that this always kind of depresses her, let alone knowing now that dad won't live permanently with us.
Any advice?
