| I've just about had it with this shit.
I'm more than sure other gamers here might have this same issue. As long as I've lived, my parents continue to basically make fun of me for playing videogames, as much as I do. Sure I've been playing a little more lately since I quit my job but they think I play a ridiculous amount that's completely blown out of proportion (like 5-6 hours a day? Uh, no). It's been getting worse lately with my mom thinking I'm depressed and not having a job, they basically put it in terms that it's "all I do" all day everyday and that's not even the fucking case. Why can't I just fucking play videogames and not worry about getting shit for it? For crying out loud my dad has been playing guitar since his late teens and these days he plays every single day. I've really just about had it with being "reserved" when it comes to discussions with my parents (not really ever speaking my mind), and completely going off on him. And they won't get off my ass about getting a job, that's not very helpful in being antagonizing about it. For 20 years I'm disappointed they don't quite understand how exactly I mentally function. All of a sudden I've got to pay for college, books, and everything entirely on my own this semester too. Since my mom doesn't feel "motivated" to borrow money. On top of this my dad is now making me pay for car insurance and phone stuff again, which is fine and all ... but great timing, seriously (oh just paid for new tags too). I wasn't paying this for a few months since last summer because I had to pay for my own chiropractic treatment, which was about $1400 of my own money or around there, though I'm still going in every few months and whenever I walk through those doors it's another $60 or so. What I'm getting at is it just seems like they don't even want me around the house anymore. My mom keeps telling me "I can take a semester off" of school and just work, I'm not sure what she's getting at there anymore. Whatever. This is like a diary rant I guess because it's just random shit I've been thinking about today while being pretty pissed off about all things in the world. Hopefully I can get this new job I'm trying to get or something and hopefully I'll do good this semester, so they'll just shut the hell up and leave me alone. |

| Yeah man, ever since my mom dated "Tim", he pretty much brainwashed her saying that im a little too old for Videogames. Unfortunately for him, I pretty much want to make it my future job. So the last time he asked how old I was, I told him "Old enough to go to College and study Videogames."
But for your case, what CAN you do? I mean its not like you are NOT trying to get a job, shit man, I hope your family can see sometime that you are putting forth an effort in doing what you have to do. The least that can understand is that if you cant do anything at the moment, then Videogames is what you can do to pass the time, either that: Or just maybe ask your parents what you can do around the house. Sometimes I do that myself, either that or I just do things without having my say-so from my family. Just try to show that you are putting an effort on your future, and dont worry about what your parents say about your hobby. I get that shit from my dad all the fuckin time, and last time he gave me shit for it, I told him to go back to watching the history channel and keep mooching off of Grandmother, cause hes just a fuckin hobo who cant maintain a job. |

| Yeah, I just really wish with all this current shit I'm going through in my life, that they realized videogames are one of the few things that eases my time and makes me happy. | |||

My cousin would accuse me of playing like 10 hours a day (totally ridiculous). But this was only because he was jealous of my gamerscore. He actually probably plays the same if not more than I do. 
But either way, video games are not a problem. Even if a person plays 5 hours a day, because those other hours could be: Job, sports, friends, cure for cancer, etc. Right? I need to get a job too, I plan on whoring out my resume this weekend. I dunno what I'm really trying to say, but I can kind of relate. As long as you're trying, eh? All I can say is good luck, X-man. |
