Decent Divorced Dads_Half the Time_HineshC

You miss out on cute conversations, fun events, experiences, successes. If they get hurt, being there to console them or help them. Let's get started. Hi, I'm Hinesh Chohan. This is Decent divorced dads. Today we're going to talk about missing half of your kids lives. Let's get started. This one hit me really hard and still does and I really want to convey the importance of considering this. When you get divorced and you only have say partial custody of your kids, I have 50%. That means I see my kids only for half of their lives. You are missing half of your children's lives. You miss out on cute conversations, fun events, experiences, successes. If they get hurt, being there to console them or help them challenges broken hearts. You miss out on half of their lives. And this as I said hits me in a big way. Despite having an excellent co parenting relationship with their mom, now even a fairly good one in the past, not even a fraction of all those events and things are being shared. You're going to miss them. And I would see my kids after one week and see significant physical changes in them and realize wow, how much they're changing, what they're going through in a week and everything I'm missing and what I'll continue to miss that heartbreak, that discussion to be able to be there to console them. And as they get older there's going to be a point in time where they choose one house or the other because as an older child nobody wants to keep going back and forth. You want to have roots. So take this into consideration. Consider that this is is a forever thing and make it part of the context of how you decide. Whatever you do decide, make decisions with integrity.
