Any other family peeps out there have to balance Destiny with work, kids and a wife/girlfriend? My wife puts up with Destiny but it's mostly because I don't play till kids are tucked in and read to and I try and watch a show of my wife's choosing before jumping on. Stay on late get up early... Worth it!
What is everyone's ritual for getting to Destiny without getting in trouble with the family?
Edit: I love that I'm not alone in this. I can't believe how many people have the identical schedule as mine! Must be why I always find good randoms when I'm on, we are all family men. #destinydadsunite
Edit: We got our first Toxic Troll response. So I would like to give the award for biggest buzzkill to SEANY, You earned it bro.
Edit: WOW GUYS AND GALS!!! I woke up to hundreds more comments and 99% of them are positive! It's amazing to see so many good family peeps finding a healthy balance between gaming, work and family. You people are amazing and I'm not sure I've smiled so much reading these posts.
Edit: over 1000 replies!!!! Nice to see so many awesome people out there and hardly any trolls! Stay real guardians.

I feel ya brother! I; like yourself, struggle with the juggle. I'm the primary parent in the evenings, considering my wife doesn't get home from work until 7pm or so. I keep my Destiny privileges by making sure I over-do family time. After work I pick up the boys (ages 2 & 4), cook them dinner, wash dishes, conduct ABC mouse time, bath them and by then my wife is home and ready to read books to them before bed. When she's finished we hang out and I suffer through Gray's Anatomy or Parenthood until she falls asleep on the couch. That's when I take action and start my creep downstairs. I stay up pretty late, but it doesn't affect me much because my wife is responsible for getting the boys going in the morning. If you're on XBONE look me up GT: AnKh en3rgy. I have a feeling we are on at the same times.
