So my Mother In-Law says I need to grow up...

Because I like to play my 360... But the thing is, when I do play it's 80% of the time it's with my wife.
But whenever I am over at the in laws house the Mother tells me I need to put it up and grow out of it and there is more important things in life.
I mean honestly, if I had the money I would go do MMA in my spare time... But I don't... And I've tried explaining that to her.
I work at Game Stop in the mall lol...
So what is your opinion on this or have any of youexperienced a similar situation?

Tell her to stick it where the sun dont shine!

If she crochets or knits, or even watches television, tell her that her time is better spent doing something productive. Honestly, videogames aren't any more time-wasters than television or whatnot.Lockedge

Tell her to grow up and stop watching Matlock!

Yeah, I always get told to grow-up and stop playing Video Games. I've been a gamer since I was 9, I'm now 18.

The only reasonable solution is to quit playing video games.

Tell her to grow down:x

Winner.

" I'd say the same to you but you're already too old."

Give that line a go and see what happens.

Heh, old people.

Your Ma in law sounds like one of those that if you walked on water, your still not good enough for her daughter. If your wife is not complaining, then who cares what others have to say.

Yep. As long as your lady is cool with it I wouldn't worry too much about it

Whoopsie, added an extra "n".

Her opinion on anything other than sammich making is invalid. :lol:

just ignore her whenever she says something about you growing up

You're a grown man, she has no authority over you. Next time just tell her to go knit a sweater or something lol.

She's your mother-in-law, it's kinda her job to criticize everything you do. You just keep doing what you're doing and don't let what she's says get to you. After all, if most of the time your time spent gaming is with your wife, and she doesn't mind it, then what should it matter what the in-law says?? You're keeping your wife happy, and you're both doing something together that you obviously both enjoy. That's what's most important.

Tell her you have to play because its necessary cause you work at gamestop or else you'll get fired

She doesn't realize that the ESA said the average gamer is 32 or something.bluezy

Well since she is probably in her 50s or 60s. (if shes ur mother in law) Then she is probably under the impression that video games are just for little kids. My dad was the same way.(he's in his 60s) He also bugged me about how much time i spent on something so "worthless". It didnt hit him that video games arent just for 8 year olds until one of his good friends(also my basketball coach) plays halo regularly with his wife. Then my sis got a wii. And he thought being able to golf on it was crazy. His opinion on them has changed alot.

Well, if you were a doctor and she said don't read medical magazines, or a weatherman and never looked out the window.. she'd sound equally as stupid. You know your product. You > her.XilePrincess

She's actually really young, she's nice too. It's just... She hates video games. Don't know why.

Tell her that the times have changed and its norml for people of almost all ages to play video games as entertainment.
