Just to add something I once heard from one of my rebbeim. It is completely unfair to compare bachurim, and even young kollel men to 60 year olds in regards to tfilla btzibur. While, yes, ideally someone who spends their whole day learning should obviously be davening btzibur, a young man often has not yet learned enough discipline in his life to do something consistently. After having a couple kids who wake up at 7 and need to be fed, taken to school etc.. a father will naturally become more scheduled out of necessity. Therefore I wouldn’t be overly concerned.
