Everyone seems like they have this all figured out. I am basically working from 9am to 10pm because I can't get enough work in during the day with a 6yo and 4yo. I have to make up the time after normal work hours.

With kids the status quo now is to wake up, interleaved work and childcare and housecare for 14 hours - doing all poorly, get ready for bed.

yea, I manage to fit in an hour with the wife and an hour gaming CoD/VR before going to bed and getting too little sleep.

Yes but you'll have (at least) two children that will take care of you in your old age!
