27 y/o father of 1 (10.5 m/o). Took up multiboxing specifically because I'm an altaholic, but having a baby in the house means that my opportunities for uninterrupted playtime are about 15 minutes in length. Without boxing, I'd probably have had to quit playing altogether.

Gaming has always been something of a raw spot between me and my wife (a non-gamer), specifically games like WoW (single-boxed) and BF/CoD where you can't just pause and step away easily. With boxing, I'm able to turn WoW into a more social version of The Elder Scrolls. When the baby's in bed or my wife is out of town with the baby, I'm able to get my extended playtimes (BG's, etc.), but any other time I can easily just stop what I'm doing and step away without inconveniencing anyone. It's become something of a happy middle ground for everyone.
