Perhaps because it isn't?
If fatherhood was the most noble calling, what do we say of those who sacrifice it in performing time-consuming callings?
I would be interested to hear a talk about how men shouldn't trade material gain (working 80 hours a week in a big law firm) for time with their family.
I'll probably be waiting a long time.

I think someone already referred to this, but Elder Oaks, in probably my favorite talk of conference (at least that I was awake for), talked a lot about these exact things. Don't work too much, and don't spend too much time in your callings. Spend it with your family.
