Answer: 

There are two Kind of Family life.

A. GrahMedhi  , B.Grahstha

 Grhamedhi:
 he has made his center of life is  wife and family. The grhamedhis, live only for the benefit of the family members, extended or centralized,

      They have many subject matters for hearing—political, scientific, social, economic and so on—but due to a poor fund of knowledge, they set aside the question of the ultimate miseries of life, namely miseries of birth, death, old age and disease.
      Grhamedhis, being illusion by the material nature, forget everything about self-realization. This person wants to remain in this material world. His activity is to enjoy material benefits by performing religious rituals for economic development and thereby ultimately satisfy the senses. He does not want anything more
      Just like a bull  tied with the rope and  a fixed   wood, and it  is going round & Round ,  same way  grhamedhi   has fixed up his center, the wife and children, and going round throughout the whole life , wasted his entire life and dies .    Such a person works very hard throughout his life to become very rich and eat very nicely and drink. By giving some charity for pious activity he can go to a higher planetary atmosphere in the heavenly planets in his next life, but he does not want to stop the repetition of birth and death ,
   said by Prahlada Maharaja : [Srimad-Bhagavatam  7.5.30] they prefer to chew the already chewed. Again and again they experience the material pangs, even if they are rich and prosperous, but they do not want to give up this kind of life.

 Grhastha:  

The grhastha is , who lives together with wife and children but has no blind attachment for them , They understand the Goal of life , He lives transcendentally according to the regulative principle for realizing the ultimate truth. They  works to find the ultimate solution to the problems of life that is to go back home, back to Godhead, and thus, as stated in the Bhagavad-gita (8.16), the miseries of material existence—birth, death, old age and disease—are removed.

  He prefers to live in family life rather than as a mendicant or sannyasi, but his chief aim is that of relevant inquiries to achieve self-realization . The grhastha  is as good as the life of a sannyasi, 

He is responsible for  the Deliverance of those Souls ( Wife , Childeren ) who came at his shelter for this lifetime, its his duty to make sure when his wife and kids leaves their body , will get libration , The duty of Wife is also very important in this ,a qualified wife is an assistant in every respect for advancement in spiritual activities.

  To  practice the devotional service or becaming krishna counsious , we dont need to go to forest or sitting 12 hours in front of  Alter , Krishna conscious is all about adapting a Devotional life style ,few simple steps can change your normal life in Krishna conscious life

1.      Cleanliness : make sure your house and the area where you live is nice an Clean.

2.       Diet  :  family member should eat Satvik  , homemade and healthy Food , one must offer food first to Thakurji before we eat it , this way you are having  karma free diet .

3.      Start and End  you Day with Chanting or Puja , Reading Satvik books , rather then  TV , Ajjtak or NDTC , FaceBook or whats app

4.      Follow Four regulative principle , and Chant Maha mantra ( very important).

5.      once in a week , sit with your kids and teach them Geeta and bhagvatam in terms of Story , and take them to Krishna temples.

6.       Above 5 steps  is not stopping us to loving your wife or kids ,having fun with your friends ,  buying them toys or going out on vacation but whatever we do we should know the limits and  that  should not overrules our above 5  basic points ,

Gradually Devotional lifestyle benefit your entire family, you would not need to do any special effort to make them devote , they automatically became a Devotee

i am sure these process is easy to follow and you wont lose anything !!we can be  grahstha and attain krishna , there are many great grahastha who attain krishna without going to forest or sacrificing their household life .

|| Significance of Geeta and Shreemad Bhgvatam ||

Death is  the most uncertain,unexpected moment for every living being for this world ! We have taken birth so we will die !! our ancient knowledge explains the importance of  dying in more details then the importance of living of life ,

The Geeta is a teaching  , given to Arjun at the battle field , teach us  about the art of Living , the song of geeta is around 45 min   ! divided in 18 chapters and contains 701 Slokas in total ,

The Shreemad Bhagvatam : is a knowledge given to the King Parixit who was at the death bed , teach us  about the art of Dying  , The Bhagvatam was spoken for 7 Days !  divided in to  18 cantos  and contains 18000 Slokas in total !!

Why there is a huge gap in the volume of both the literature ? 
because one is focused on  Life vs other on  Death ! whichever has more importance  comparatively  got the  higher weight-age !!

why Sanatan Dharma has put more weight-age on life after death?

There are two phases of our existence , so called Life and so called Death ? Everyone of us , suffer in the process of changing state (life to death and vice verse ) of our existences ,there are tons of suffering we experience from the point when we come to this  body and when we (soul) depart out of it , every time when we take a birth or die ,we will  traumatically experience suffering in the form of "Happiness or Sadness ",''Pass or Fail", "Good or Bad" ,"Love or Hate"' "Right or Wrong", "True or False ", "Ethical or unethical" "Man or Woman", successful or Loser","satisfied or Unsatisfied"etc etc , Depends on the sankalp and Vikalp of our mind , we experienced these suffering.

So the game or the Aim of every player is to come out of  this state changing process , and situated in to the eternal existence and experience which can never be exhausted  .  

    so the intelligence which can stop the process of these changing state is called "self Realization" ! the literature which has a knowledge and applied process with an exalted examples is called shreemad Bhagvatam !
   Just as the Ganga is considered the best among the rivers, Krishna – the most exalted among all deities and Lord Shiva as the best among the devotees of Krishna, similarly the Bhagavatam is considered the best among all the Puranas. It is the natural commentary of the Vedanta Sutra since it is written by the author, Vyasdev himself..

so what is a importance of geeta  ? 
for Example:to get qualified to play at national level , you need to be qualify at the state level  ,same way to get eligible to understand and digest the teaching of Shreemad Bhagvatam , we need to get qualify by following the footstep of Bhagvat Geeta,

Shree Krishn devide Geeta in to three categories in below sequence
1) Karma Yoga 2) Dhyan/Gyan Yog and 3) Bhakti Yog,if our Karm is appropriate, we are entitled for Gyan and Bhakti, In Geeta he explain in details about Krma and Gyan but the surrender and bhakti is been elaborated much in Shreemad Bhavatam .
