Managing family scheduling and gaming - eviltoast

I love D&D and have an on-going game that occurs twice a month on the first and third Saturday evenings of the month. The game has been going for a little over two years and I love it so much.

I am a father and husband too. Unfortunately, my wife is frustrated with having those Saturdays taken up on the schedule where she has to schedule things around them or go without me (vacations, family outings, etc). Admittedly she has done well at scheduling and should be given credit for her tolerance thus far.

Those of you who are successfully managing family schedules and gaming, what is your secret?

    Well I mean if you put it that way the choice is obvious but I don’t think there’s any ultimatums being leveled here. She would think quitting the table to be an extreme and overreacting choice.

      I’m not saying you have to quit, just see if you can figure out a better time. Have everyone take a look at their calendars.
