What is it with parents and games?

Most of them see something against our hobbie and form of entertainment when some of them play games for themselves! I think Meka is for example.

You see, I would rather spend time playing on my latest game then talk to my mum about how work was. Maybe she sees them as unsocial as said in another topic.

Ok, I am mostly on my PC these days in my room and when I am playing my favourite games and chatting to mates she sees it as a crime that I am in my room alot! Arent most kids?

Anyway, do any of you have parent/games related storys you would like to tell?

I think my mate got chased round the house with a knife before by his Mum, maybe game realted.

Dunno, it can be dodgy I suppose and the thought of staring at a PC monitor all day is not a very good thought!

Forgot to say that my mum was hooked on Tetris for ages, until i started to charge her for playing on my gameboy, then she stopped playing it :)
