  (You know a thread is getting too big when you have to click "parent" to figure out if someone is talking to you...) I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you don't have children Heh. Wrong. I'm afraid your inferencing could use a little sharpening. If you're correct about this (and you may well be)... Your anecdotal observations about parents did little to advance your point ... then there's probably some extraneous reason why I'm so hung up on the matter of parenting, programming, and spare time. I wonder what that could be? (And how is it that I know so many programmers with small children...)

  Just as another data point, I too have a small child (toddler in this case) who gets just about every minute of my time outside of work. The three hours every night after she goes to bed is spent either with my wife or coding. With that said, not one of his comments contradicts any of my personal experience working with other parents.
