What do you folks think about this?

Inexpensive commuter doesn't apply to a 2-3 mile commute. That's a pure $ issue.
Selfish? Yes, but you can say anything we do for fun is selfish. Look at it from your wife and kid's point of view. Weight that - for yourself. +1 on 'more insurance,' definately.
I didn't touch my MC license privilege for 25 years and wanted one every day. College, home and family took priority. My daughter's 17 now and I still carry a lot of insurance.
I've been in those shoes and made my decisions but I would not impose them on you.
I ride now - alongside my daughter. I wish you the same.
