Managing family scheduling and gaming (lemmy.world)

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?

@SheeEttin @cosmosparda THE GAME!
Seriously, it's always hard to find a place, but we have managed to find a time for each member of the couple without losing quality family time. Hard but possible!
It needs planning within the families and with other people, but we managed to get a game session each month, more or less.

    @SheeEttin It was an irony, I thought it was understood by the 'seriously' afterwards, but maybe I've not expressed myself clearly (english is not my native language). Excuse the confusion, of course family is always first :)
