I daresay but for me if one has children they should spend the time with them and not leave them. It is the childs beginnings which count, this is when they are more vulnerable. Just my thoughts but mine were always considered. BB is not a good example for a child to see in later life, they see their parent in all her/his glory, warts and all.
