With her career on the move again, Clarissa, I mean Sabrina…err, Melissa Joan Hart is struggling to parent her kids, Mason Walter, 4.5, and Braydon ‘Brady’ Hart, 2.5 while being gone all the time.

The Melissa & Joey star says she splits up filming her TV show on the West Coast and being home with her boys in Connecticut.

“We’re just taking it a month at a time. I see them every other week,”

“It’s difficult but at least I can also focus on work and then go home and be a mom.”

Melissa told PEOPLE that the stress gets to her from time to time, but that’s the life she chose.

“I just had the last six weeks off and I got to be home [in Connecticut]. Now I’m going to go back to the West coast for the next five months. My kids are in school so they have to be here — it is really hard.”

How sad! I’m on the fence about this one. On one hand, they’re only 2 and 4, so surely she could have a nanny with them and take them when she’s filming. But on the other hand, they need the stability of a home life and friends and comfort of their own beds. What do you think?
