This is why when you have kids, you take on the responsibility of 5-6 years of your life being devoted entirely to 24/7 care of a small human being and their every single need. You don't get to do "luxury" things like gaming. A kid isn't a hobby, or even a job, it is literally a life. A lot of parents don't seem to realize that these days.

Even more confusing why someone would be raiding at times when their child would need attention, like mentioned before. But, that is straying from the OP, I'd hope someone old enough to have children would also have the common courtesy to spare people around them.

I'm a bit tentative on your first paragraph personally. Having a child shouldn't invalidate who a person is prior to having a child but for people to be expected to give up all "luxuries" in order to devote themselves to their child is what leads to things such as burnout, loss of personal opinion or identity, stress, depression and in some cases suicide. I can speak personally about feelings of the above mentioned situations.

Everyone needs self-care, if a video game is what people consider to be their hour or 2 a week portion of self-care to be, there is literally no one with the right to judge, so long as it doesn't become a priority over the needs of a child.

Unwanted noises from children fall into the same category as eating noises, background music and snorting. Every one of us should be observant of the disruptions around us.

Perhaps I've gotten too real for what is essentially a troll thread but it's quite alarming the opinion of some people have towards those who are doing something as simple as sustaining our existence on this planet. Without children being born, we wouldn't be here enjoying the games we play

They're actually killing the planet. :v Like, having a kid is literally the worst thing you can do for the environment. You're responsible for their entire carbon footprint. Don't do it, the ocean temp is continually rising as it is.

If it makes you feel any better, I work for a company that makes plastic so I'm pretty much damning the planet as we speak. I may as well make it into a competition to see who kills the planet the most.

I wonder if I'll get a mount for it.

Or do raids during times when their kids are asleep.
