I feel sorry for the families in TSCC now. They spend all of their extra time at church, fulfilling roles in their "callings" that are pointless. My dad was notorious for spending more time at church than with his own family. I used to think that was noble somehow- now I feel so angry and hurt by it. From the moment my DH and I were married and started having kids we chose each other over TSCC. I remember thinking "if DH ever gets called as a Bishop, I think as his wife I have to protest because I want him around." Little did I know that inside my DH felt the same way about it as I did. We have always put our family time before anything else. I felt kind of guilty at times, especially while holding callings that I wouldn't always show up for due to family time. The more I thought about it, the less I believed that TSCC was about "family time" but more about "ward family time". It's all about them. They don't give two craps about family actually spending time together (unless under the roof of TSCC buildings). So, turns out we were right all along to not give 110% of our time to TSCC, and give it all to our family.
