No. My parents thought my gaming habits were fucking bizarre and totally alien.

They used to play back in the day. I got my father in law in on a game once, back when we needed to know each other better. I think he had fun, but he seemed to be out of his element after a bit. He bowed out after a short spell, but he seemed better after.

My dad learned the Pokemon TCG for me to have someone to play with. I feel so bad for him. He always had to put up with my nerdy shit. Wish I would have just got into cars like he wanted me too.

Funny enough, my FRIEND's dad got me into TGs. Starting with AD&D and 1st edition champions. Now I play Champions complete (basically 6th edition hero system) and D&D 5e.

My older sister legitimately feared for my mental well-being when I said I was playing D&D with friends. So much for that.

Every time someone takes a picture of them with the $150 worth of D&D books with the caption "LOL IMMA NERD NOW!!!", I sincerely wish Hitler had won the war.

I like playing them with my family. Its a good alternative to board games, cause lets be honest, my sister in law is crazy competitive. I'm working on a mash up of Wushu and FATE thats super simple but lets us do both physical and social combat.

I see we are brothers in spiritual arms.

I too want to gas the je-I mean phonies. Yes the phonies.

Actually my dad got me into it, and I even played a few games of Midnight d20 with him. It was nice.

My father was my first DM (Red Box Basic) in '96. My mother played a Chaotic Rogue who went off on her own only to show up at the last second to claim the kill. I was a dwarf who got killed by a harpy in a chimney and his twin brother showed up to avenge him. My little brother played the wizard who got to cast sleep then spend the rest of the time running from everything.
Good times.

Chaotic THIEF....damn class name drift
anyhow, I run a 5e game with xenomorphs and Fiendish cults.
