I just want to let everyone know what awesome things Facetime and Skype are for divorced parents.
My WXW took my kids to another state, and I am able to Facetime with them every night before bed.
It's great because unlike the phone, with Facetime they can just lean one of their ipods up on a desk and it's like I'm in the room with them. They play legos, have swordfights, do whatever they would normally do and I'm just there watching, like I would be if I was actually there reading a magazine or something.
I HIGHLY recommend it to all parents separated from their kids.

What do you recommend when the absent parent is wayward? Does this help fill your FC emotion?

If the kids want to, then they should. But I wouldn't go out of my way to help Wayturd with anything.
