Is he looking to replace the month long tech-free home, with more quality time spent with you and the kiddos? Is he planning, family game nights, and trips to museums or zoos or whatever your family enjoys?

To him, this doesn't sound like it will affect him, one way or the other, but for you and the kids, it certainly will have a large impact. And as you and the children, build resentment, what precisely does he do, when he gets home at night, from work? What's is really bringing this on? Why is he concerned that he's being ignored? (I say that, because of the comment, you would rather talk to people online than to me...um, what is it, that he would like to talk about? What is the end goal here?)
