Hrm, vanishing posts via cell phone. Meh.

As a parent, whose spouse also plays (and usually at the same time, doing the same things), we regularly have to deal with the uninterruptable boss casts of "Child scraped her knee" or "Sister hit me with a stick".

While we try to plan so that we'll have time free of such things go do instance diving, I haven't figured out the secret to stopping life from happening.

That being said - you're not the only one it's happening to. On a fairly regular basis, my wife and I will end up in an instance and everyone else will have some random interruption happen. We wait, we resume, and...we end up running 3 or 4 more instances with the same group, because we all know things happen.

Communicate with your group, don't abuse any willingness on their part to give you the moments you need, and more often than not, you'll find that they'll make use of the time you need to do their own (potty break | repair run | coffee refill | insert other thing here). Everyone ends up happy.
