I don't know about the should part, but I think everyone needs a reason to get out of bed in the morning, to know that they're contributing to their family and their society as a whole. Imagine how unpleasant it would ultimately be to be told that your needs would be well met, but you would no longer be allowed to carry out productive work.

I’ve been on paternity leave for 4 months out of 6 just playing with my kids. It’s awesome.

I would love to not work and just play with my kids.

Every time you could spend five more minutes playing with your kids, you should, in my opinion. That's pretty much the meaning of life.
