[How do you advise a controller that Real Life is cutting into a flight]

Thank you all for the advice.

[How do you advise a controller that Real Life is cutting into a flight]

Hi all,

love flying and Observing - have learnt heaps just by being on VATSIM 

my question is , how do you politely inform a controller that you are dropping off VATSIM due to real life.  For example I often get interrupted after I’ve taxied , taken off and am mid flight - but to date I’ve not done these flights with VATSIM up because I didn’t want to mess up an enroute/approach/tower controllers enjoyment by saying “got to go and read to <insert child>”

Thanks to all the controllers who’ve handled me so far.
