    leave my son?

    I'm in the Philippines at the moment. I'm thinking of going back to the US to work. The pay I can ge there is way better than what I'm making now, but I'd have to sacrifice not seeing my son and hubby. kinda confused.

    How old is your son?

    In the early years of a kids life things change really fast and if you are gone a lot you will probably miss most of it. Many people that I know that were away during thier kids childhoods regret it.

    at the same time you'll have to take this into consideration. you will be making probably more money in the US, however, things in the US are also more expensive. i'm not sure if you're familiar with hawaiian history, but after the plantation workers left their homes in the philippines, a lot of them never returned home, simply because they couldn't afford it.

    Ha. Good one. I know you want whats best for your son, but sometimes you have to think about what's best for your family. Family is always more important, don't break it up. There has to be other alternatives.
