In my opinion, if you find yourself wholly engrossed in your job - thats great - for you. You shouldn't come down on other people because they have something more "personally" satisfying in their lives. I love my career (graphic designer and illustrator), but its only a way for me to afford my life(2 kids and a wife). My mantra has always been: I work to live - not live to work. As far as kids go - there are no perfect kids. I know that I wasn't! But in an inperfect world isn't perfection being inperfect?
