There is Nothing I have " achieved" that gives me the quiet satisfaction and sense of meaning that watching my children thrive does
of course not, that existence is your "life"
if you devoted all of the time spent on your children/family/etc elsewhere who knows what you might have "achieved" and those accomplishments would be just as satisfying.
dedicating 18-21 years of your life to anything and watching it thrive could easily be just as rewarding

Sociopaths rarely understand the power of a parent/child relationship and how dynamic it really is.

I'll agree to your premise. Which is why I said earlier the key is being true to yourself. I'm a phenomenal parent. I'm kind of a shitty son. I'm a better than average employer. I'm a shitty employee. What gives my life meaning is family and physical adventure. Materialism leaves me cold. I'd rather a good dog than a vanity car. I'd rather an exhausting hike than drinks by the pool. That's me. Everyone being different.
What gives my life meaning is nurturing my family and seeing them bloom beyond anything I could ever be. My business is tremendously successful, but it's just what I do, it's not who I am. Everybody, again, can make that decision for themselves.
