Worth it? Any advice?

Decisions we make when our children are young affect everything in our lives and their lives, it has a ripple affect that carries forward for decades later. I would not advise any parent of small children, Mother or Father to pursue a job where 50% travel is the norm or expected.

You miss too much.
