Daddies often have to go away from home and leave their family and children behind.  Whether a soldier, sailor, airman, businessman, oil-rigger, truck driver, doctor, actor or sportsman - all Dads have to go away sometimes and temporary separation affects the whole family.   Whatever he does, and no matter why Dad has to leave home, it is hard on all the family.  If Dad's departure is understood, his absence is more likely to be accepted and this will reduce anxiety.  The book My Daddy's Going Away... will help you and your children talk through the stressors of paternal separation and find ways to lessen the anxiety that is often felt across the family
