We all make choices. I have kids, I work, I'm involved in other ways with the community I live in. Sometimes my kids are with me at clubs and events, sometimes they are not. I budget my time and activities accordingly, and would presume everyone else does a well. Most everyone on the EC is in the same boat, and don't get paid either. I look forward to retiring so I can do more of what I want, but I'm not sure that will be the case. My parents have never been busier, and I see some folks at the club less now than when they worked, so who knows.
