My fiance' and I treat poker time like a part time job. (She has a home office, so this makes sense.) If I'm playing poker, I'm basically to be treated like I'm "at work". Which means anything that she wouldn't interrupt my "real job" over, well, it can wait an hour or two.
It also means that sometimes I have to just "not work" for a day because "stuff" is going on.
I also think that poker is like homework. You study and try to learn and get better so you can land that better job with higher pay. You gotta put in the time and you gotta focus if you want to excel.
Of course:
family... priorities... more to life than money... everything in moderation...
