Sometimes, it is harder to deal with the emotional aspect than to deal with the physical effects of the husband's absence. You have to let your husband feel that you can manage and you also want to show the kids that everything is fine, especially during the times when they miss the presence of their father. Below are some tips in order to manage the emotional battles when your husband is away to travel.
Spend even a few minutes to communicate. It is true that he is away and is busy in meetings and with other appointments. Agree to a certain schedule of the day to talk, especially if he is on a different time zone. Through these few minute conversation, you will be able to update one another about your whereabouts.
Motivate the kids to behave. Your husband should talk with the kids about his being away and he should discuss about certain rewards if they do behave well. They should be reminded to take of you and help you with the household chores.
See to it that every member is able to say goodbye. If possible, bring everybody to the airport upon your husband's departure. With this, the whole family will still be able to have a meal together, kiss, embrace and say goodbye to their dad.
Think of the good things and stay positive. Remember your fond routines and his loving gestures. Refrain from thinking negatively and dwelling to your loneliness. If you cannot keep from missing him, keep yourself busy and do things that you enjoy.
Instill in their mind how much they are loved. Always remind your kids that even dad is away, he is thinking of them. He is not with them because he needs to work for them and secure their future. Your kids will always look forward to the day of his coming home.
