Just defending the Dads here...I'm a member of DoD and yes, there are dads who can spend hours on end playing till the wee hours of the night. Many of them have just one kid and/or they have an off-hours job that gives them the flexibility to play late into the night. But there are also Dads of multiple kids, who get up a 4 a.m. to start their day. For me "addicted" meant that I played between 9 p.m. - 10 p.m. during the weeknights, the time between when the kids went to bed, and when I needed to be in bed to get at least 5 1/2 hours of sleep. Then any "free" moment on the weekends when I wasn't at the gym, at the ball field, working on the house, or generally "hanging" with my wife. If I was not doing anything else, I was playing Destiny. That doesn't mean that I had loads of free time to play. Likely, that's his situation too.

    ...and my situation as well. I play 9-10pm till midnight or so a couple of nights a week(I don't play often on the weekends for your exact reasons), along with 7 other fathers all in our late 30's early 40's. We all work full time, if not more, day jobs(I am up at 6:30 am with a toddler) and the PS4 doesn't even get turned on while he is awake :) No need to defend him, I am on his side and even offered to help him, I just find it really hard to believe it takes 2 hours to find a group on LFG and disagree with some of his criticisms. And LOL, I just checked his profile and he has higher light level on not one but TWO toons than I do, and a TOM....... and your complaining about time? Get real man lol.
