Anyone else's DC have a father abroad?

[Billi77]

And if so, what is your contact arrangement?

[crumpeteer]

Yes. He comes over when he can holiday wise, so about every other month. When he’s here he stays with us (we get on well). Before he moved out from his parents (long story), dd would spend time over there too as gp’s would provide childcare when he was working. We would take turns taking and collecting dd. Now he doesn’t want her to stay with him cause of his living situation and it would be difficult too as no childcare.

Following as mine is about to go live abroad too...not really talked about contact arrangements yet.

my husband moved abroad leaving me with 4 dc youngest was 6 months she's now 6 in that time we have seen him maybe 4 times in 5 years for a month at a time, he doesn't really have any interest in the kids at all and does not support me financially. I do try and make a bit of a effort to keep him updated with the kids though.
