What is the religious ruling on a husband who travels for work, leaving his wife and adolescent children, while the wife feels emotional and physical deprivation and wishes for her husband's permanent return?

It is the wife's right to demand her husband's return if he has been absent for more than six months without her consent. The husband must consider his wife's feelings and work to satisfy her natural needs. The wife is advised to continue counseling her husband to return or to bring his family with him. She should also avoid incitements to lust and fill her time with beneficial activities.
