Are there any single moms on here who could speak to how they balance parenting and being an FSO. For context I have three kids and they would be spending summers in the states with their dad, but I would be solo during the school year. I know it's very "post dependent" but generally are you able to be around after 5pm? Are people understanding of half days to go see kids school plays? Any feedback, anecdotal or otherwise would be really helpful.
