When does Sam show himself ready to abandon Rose and baby Elanor? He says "And I can't come." He knows he can't leave them, and so does Frodo.
Sam doesn't sail west until Rosie is dead. Yes, he leaves his chidren, but most if not all of them are settled, with families of their own. And losing Frodo sixty years earlier was a pretty big deal. He only leaves baby Elanor for a fortnight.
I suppose we're supposed to assume that Merry and Pippin's wives are already dead too.
