EverNightX: The point was to explain to you why "You can always find time for the things you really want to do/value/care about".
Yes, it's always possible for someone to find time for a subset of high-priority tasks that fit into the amount of time they have available. But that strikes me as a rather self-evident, circular statement that doesn't really say anything meaningful. I'm still not quite sure what you are really trying to say (unless you are simply arguing for the sake of it). For me, playing games is low enough on my priority list that it's common for me to start a game and not finish it (which relates to the topic at hand). I don't see how the fact that 'I chose my situation' changes that. The fact that I chose my situation doesn't invalidate it - it's still my situation. This is essentially a dirty debating tactic. If I complain about being busy, then I shouldn't be posting on the forum anyway, ergo you win the debate by default. A convenient way to try to dodge having to respond to my points.
(and that's beside the point that making a forum post takes 2 minutes, whereas going to the gym takes over an hour. They're not in any sense comparable)
Again, a very convenient dodge, when you are lecturing a parent about how easy it is to find time. Answering a very simple yes/no question about your personal situation does not constitute 'talking about your family'.
