    Well, I am still single and works far from home. I just visit my parents once a month. I think they're OK with it.

    Yeah;
    We need to relize that life isn't always about work & making money. Take some time off and chill with your family once in a while.

    I see some of my family members quite often, others not so much. Even when I can't see them though, it's always nice to call them every so often to see how they are doing. That way, we can keep in touch even if we don't visit with one another all the time.

    I go home every once in a while. I think my parents are okay with it. They don't expect to see me very ofen, so they're quite happy when I come along. Some of my more distant relatives I barely see, but I can' say that I find that very important.

    Sometime I am so busy with my work that I don't have much time for my family. So I tend to spend more time with them when I am not tied down by too much work. ;)

    i'm very guilty when it comes to giving time with my family. for the past 5 years, i had devoted my time to my ex boyfriend.. and now that we are not anymore together, i promised myself to give and devote all my time to my family :)

    and even the next time, that i'll be in a relationship, i'll make sure that i'll have time for them.

    For me, being in this business is all about spending time with the family. It's really the worst of lost opportunity if someone doesn't spend time with the children when they're small. You don't get a second chance at that. Working on my websites can always take second chair, if I had a real job I wouldn't have that.
