Look at it this way. Many over the years have come to this country for a better situation and have had to leave their families behind until they were established enough to bring them over. I'm sure they missed their families very much but they still worked hard and waited until their situation was strong enough. If they had given in to their feelings they would not have been able to be with their families again.
I hope this makes sense.
So I should just walk away from my obligations as a parent, and my obligations to somoone I love?
