DH and I have two children together. He works and I am a SAHM. This arrangement has worked well however my husband has been made redundant recently and we are faced with the prospect of him working away from home during the week (the alternative is to all up sticks and move with him- unsettling for DC who are settled at school to say the least).
I know lots of people who commute and manage with the kids in the week and am guessing what this might be like for us but having not done it before wonder how others find it and cope?
I am wondering whether in the short term it may be easier not to move but longer term all the family relationships will suffer by not moving. DC are still young as they are at primary school and we have no family help locally.
All views would be helpful. Thanks

if your partner works away from home during the week tell me how you find it?
