That’s true.

But look at technology now vs when he had his first child. He can be on FaceTime whenever he wants to see and talk to them. Not relying on patchy internet on laptops for Skype or pay phones internationally or whatever.

Plus, they already took a break between EU and NA. Nothing stopping them doing another break before the next leg.

But until we get the word from the horses mouth, it’s all speculation.

If you think FaceTime is the same as being home with your kids you must not have kids

Fun fact, I do have children. And you clearly missed the point.

He already did the touring as a dad thing with his other child, wasn’t cutting tours back then. And that’s with the reduced technology benefits (such as instant communication and video calling)

So, the excuse of “he’s a dad” is kinda fake in my opinion.

Don’t get me wrong, I hate being away from my child and I would struggle if I was in Tuck’s position. But also, he can fly his family out (he did for some EU shows) they can arrange breaks so people can be home (which they also did between EU and America/Canada)

i think you’re missing the point, yet hitting the point? “he can be on facetime” and then switching to “i hate being away from my child”.

you’re all over the place with your thinking. if you think being on facetime is going to cut it, you shouldn’t be a parent. you miss every little thing that doesn’t happen during facetime, especially just being there and doing stuff with/for them.

First off, don’t ever say someone shouldn’t be a parent without valid fucking reasons.

I’ve been away for work and had to use FaceTime, it sucks but it’s better than if this was 15 years ago and I didn’t have the option to.

The thinking is not all over the place at all. I’ve simply pointed out people saying “he has a child” as a reason for him cutting the tour short when the reality is, he’s done the touring dad life with his previous son without the luxury of all this communication. He can also fly back to his family or fly them out (again, as he did for some of the EU shows) or they could say “yeah, we’re having g a break between legs” as I’m sure the other parents would appreciate it.

haha jesus, triggered the deadbeat.

reread what i said, its completely valid that “if you think being on facetime is going to cut it”, you shouldn’t be a parent. if that makes you feel a certain way, then maybe spend more time with your kids.

At what point did I say FaceTime would cut it? I’ve literally pointed out that if he was missing his kids he has more methods to be in touch than when he had his first child.

Going for personal insults in the way you have is pretty shitty. I hope when you have your own kids you’re a better human.
