That sounds like a problem that you might have if you live in a war zone or something. But anyone else who has some downtime can easily jump into a VR game and have a blast.

I guess another situation that would make VR hard to use is if you have dozens of small creatures running around near your feet. If you're raising an army of cats or ferrets, something like that.

My small kids almost qualify as an army of cats or ferrets, and they absolutely insist on being fed, watered, and interacted with.

Yep that's no problem to accomplish and still use VR if you wanted to. Nobody said you have to neglect your kids to use it, you just might have to wait until they're in bed or away.
