I think一個月打3-4次麻雀is OK. I play every weekend. I agree that's a way to relax yourself. I started to play mahjong when I was 15 years old. My husband didn't like it before, but now, as long as there's food for everyone (especially food for my grand daughter)and I let him know where and who I'm playing with will be fine. Especially nowaday everyone has a mobile phone, if he wants to find you he can just ring. Right?
