Ay nako, ganyan talaga when one parent is away, the stress builds up kasi you're carrying most of the load with the kids, tapos he's frustrated being far, so kahit small things become big fights. Nag-usap na kayo seriously (not during an argument) about what you're both feeling, like maybe sched a proper call kung saan you two can talk without distractions? A few of my mum friends in similar situations said it helped when they made time to reconnect as a couple, even just 15 mins, kasi the resentment starts piling up talaga. What he said sounds like guilt talking more than the truth, pero yun needs to be addressed gently, maybe with some couples counseling if it keeps coming up, para ma-work out ang both of your feelings about the OFW setup. Hang in there, mommy, this phase is tough but very real for maraming families natin.
