Part time dad

It sucks to be a part time dad. I don't get to be there when the things are going good or when the things are going bad. Case in point, my son got in trouble today at day care and I got to be "mean dad" over the phone. I can hear in his voice that he really isn't paying attention to me because I can hear the new dog, mom and bf in the background.
That's the part that sucks. Not being there and having words fall on pre-occupied ears. Or when talking to my daughter, having bf's daughter in the background and thus things I say go unheard. Even the "I love you" get a "What?"
eh, C'est la vie.
