No. Even if they did, I'd just pimp slap them and tell them I don't care. Besides, I don't obsessively play games. These days I'm barely able to play a game for more than an hour. Maybe when I was like 8 and played Supah Mario all day long but now I've grown up somewhat.

Yes, they do. A LOT. They keep telling me that my eyesight will go blurry. Strike that, they're THREATENING me. -_-I've been playing my DS 24/7 for 4 years now, and they were there to watch me. When will they understand that I know how to control myself? D8

They tried to back in the SNES days, but I'm pretty much in control now, they never really cared about the games that I played, only when I was playing GTA2 as a 8-year old. (And 2 years later I was playing Conker's bad fur day :D)

They used to but after I hit 16 they didn't care too much about what I play. They only pay attention to what's being played when my younger siblings are watching

they kept homework restrictions on me too when i was a kid. i remember they used to confiscate my gameboy during exam week. thank god those days are over. of course i could bypass that with emulation if they still did it, but whatever.

not in the least bit because i know more about the games than they do and they are fine with all my games anyhow. they like how i play mainly RPGs because it test my mind constantly so i am still gaining intelligence even if it becomes almost useless in practical apps.
