Hello. I would like to know what you think I could do to help me. I got my divorce since a year and I got my two children living with me. So I am forced to bring in the money and do quite all by myself. So I got forced to work more. I've got less time for my children now and they've started to blame it to me in some way. They say they are sad and that they miss me a lot. I understand so much and I'm hurt to see them hurt too. How can I explain to them that it's hard to do otherwise? Or else, what solutions are there in this new way of life? I am sure your opinions will be very helpful. Thank you all in advance.

Hi Tessa. Do you have a babysitter or are your children on their own when you are not there?
You could try to find another job which could allow you to have more time for yourself, so you could take care of your children.

i think that first of all you should talk to them. explain to them that you have to work hard for them and you are doing all this for them. tell them that you love them but you are helpless and you miss them a lot too. you can also take them out and spend weekends with them such that you compensate for the whole week and thus they will not complain

I agree with friend for life that you should talk to them first.Make them understand that you are working this much to earn money for them and that it is not possible to do so in this world without money.I think that you could also try to manage your time properly so that you could have time with them.I hope that they will understand.
