I was watching a movie where they guy says something like just this one last gig I'm out. And the old director replies thats what I said 40 years ago. If you want to be with your family then just walk out of here get in your car and never come back. There is no such thing as the last one.

Its from a movie but its still true. Point being that going all in on something else than your family often ends up being more costly than you think and you can never get that time back.

My dog passed recently and I still find great regret about how many times I ignored him to do work. I can't imagine how much I'd regret it with a child. If you want a real world reference.
