So I was just wondering if there is anyone in your family/ close to you hates seeing gaming? My dad and sis are fine with it, but my mum absolutely hates it. Its a real pain sometimes.

And if theres any kind of excuse that they use to try to say why its bad for you and if there is anything they say you should be doing, post away ppl!!!

No-one hates me playing videogames. Some people would find it weird because they think gaming is for immature teens... :lol:

No, but I hate when people watch me gaming, I'm easily distracted and an extra set of eyes watching me is really annoying, they could be thinking anything, judging!!

My brother's girlfriend always complains and moans about us playing video games. When I played Call of Duty the other day, she was just like "Do you have any friends in real life or are those your only friends?" and I responded "These are my friends in real life. We just happen to play Call of Duty together." She also makes other weird comments like "I don't understand how you could play something like this. It looks so boring." and "Do you have anything better to do with your time?" which I responded with "I don't know. Do you have anything better to do with your time than to sit here watching me play a 'pointless' video game?"

God I hate her.

no. my parents used to think me and my brother played too many video games, but we play way more now and they never say anything. i guess they'd rather me be playing video games than doing drugs.

My Parents. I stopped gaming because of it. I played about an hour daily and now I went to playing 1-2 hours weekly. A man cant stretch out with a sprite and a game control in his hands without someone barging in my room and telling me thatI should stop playing games :( I miss the old days. They care THAT much :) I'll thank them someday, I think I will

My parents and sister are ok with me gaming. Its me thats the problem. I hate seeing myself playing video games because I look like an idiot. Thats why I dont have any mirrors in my room and forbid anyone to take a pic of me in my room.

my parents hate gaming, say im addicted, and that games make u dumber and that its for kids and that if i dont stop gaming i will be sad for the rest of my life. i hate these exaggerated negative stereotypes, it messes with my head and often feel bad about it sometimes but i know its not a problem and theres nothing wrong with it, just some people are too stupid and ignorant to understand videogames, it is relatively new especially to parents, and its getting bigger than ever. i notice its the elder generations that frown upon gaming.

Yes. Well -- back then that is. My parents and sister absolutely despise video games. My sister would always call me a loser and tell me that it is more normal to go out partying at my age................................SHE WAS 24 AND SAYING THIS. Ugh, my family sucks. Lol.

It's actually really bad for me. My entire family hates it. It gets to the point where I feel guilty playing. It shouldn't be like that! :x

My mom doesnt really care unless i play for long time. She even used to love watching me playing Tomb raider back on the ps1 days. She used to ask me to play it so she could watch it. On the school the thing was different, there was no one in my class that was much of a gamer, so i always got that look.

Nah. I think my parents would be a little disappointed if I played games any more than I do, but no one really cares. Gaming is a really normal habit/hobby.
