Great answers really. I especiacially enjoyed the Mold comment.
Honestly though I see where he is coming from. When my dad was on a team I was old enough to realize that he was on a team, I knew he was gone, and I knew (Mostly) where he was going. If you make it while your daughter is young then it wont be a big deal, if your still in when she gets older then you may be asked these types of questions, and all I can say is what my dad did, be as honest as possible. He never said anything about saving the world, but I knew what he did, and why he was gone so much, and I respected the man more for it. I think that if you get there you will know how to answer those questions like TR said.
