Read this if you want, you don't have to its just me letting out some steam. Sorry if it's off topic.
So my parents always say I spend too much time on games like SP and say I need to play a lot less. I'm their just trying to do what's best for me but I feel their being unfair as the reason why I play so much is because they gradually spent less and less bonding time with me over the past few years. The best I can hope for now is 1 or 2 bonding times a month. They don't do any games or do anything like play LEGO with me and me younger brother. Instead they just get cooped up on their phones. But the reason why I play so much is that on this site you guys give me so many compliments on my skill and say how good my planes are. This really makes me happy as it makes up for all the attention and time my parents don't spend with me. So if anyone read this to the end I just want to say thanks for all the attention you've given me and sorry if this is off topic once again.
My family normally doesn't want me on the PC too much, but after i got into XML modding my dad became more proud i guess so idk if you have android or not but this may be a good idea
@DeezDucks My parents have their bad moments and good moments. We travel a lot, but during the trip they often argue in the most annoying way possible. I play games like Just Cause 2 and they seem to be fine with it, they seem to almost like the awesome driving stuff, but they see the M rating, they instantly hate it. They never look at the reasons a game is rated what it is, only the rating itself.
My situation can't even begin to compare to yours, but I almost see what you mean. Sorry if I feel spoiled....
@Lucasmah My family does every but play games with me :/ Just not much and not as fun.
@DeezDucks my family is awesome. We play games, go to parks, go on road trips, etc. Feel bad for you man!
@DeezDucks lewis gun? lol i can totally relate tho
I see what you mean and now that I think about it I feel the same way. Oh and I made to 300 pts (;
@TommySchram13 Yeh a bit.
Sorry man. I can't relate but som how I can imagine how that would feel. I feel the way you do sometimes but for a different reason. When you see someone that is over privlaged but they don't act over privlaged (me), they are usually having a rough time because they are over privlaged. Again, me sometimes. You know what I am saying kind of? @DeezDucks
@TommySchram13 My dad grew up on a farm but in China so his view on how the world should be run involves no games and all work and strict surveillance :/ sometimes I feel like I'm in a prison since I can't play the games all my friends do.
Thanks! He is cool. But he is the ones that grew up on a farm with hard labor so he is strick and never stops bugging me until I get a chore or task done. ;)@DeezDucks
@TommySchram13 Your lucky to have such a cool dad :D
I do sometimes relate to you though. ESPECIALLY IN SCHOOL!
Me too man. I grew to be 14 now and I've always liked aviation. My dads a general aviation pilot but still knows how to drive the jets and all. Me and him fly an Ercoupe together because that is the only plane I can take off fly and land in!@DeezDucks
Me and my dad work together on models. Me and him do the wood/balsa rc building and just I do the small little plastic ones. They are both fun. Especially the balsa because it is like simple planes.@DeezDucks
@RedBeard66 The thing is the reason why I got into this game was because I'm a huge aircraft fanatic so I basically know all the physics in the game atm.
@RedBeard66 I have a current grand total of 4 model kits.
@AeroEngineering They don't play on their phones they just browse and watch movies.
@DeezDucks I can really relate and my parents say go outside and play but their is nothing to do outside and they are lazy 24/7
I started building real model planes, that can be fun also. I play sp when I don't have enough time for physical builds. Both teach great building skills and most of the time you learn some history and physics as well. They should be happy you play a game in which you create, not just destroy.
Arm't your parents hypocrites if they tell you to not to play games often but are on their phones all of the time?
@DeezDucks yeah though it doesn't seem AS bad for me
@Nickasaurus Really? I thought I was in the group of very few people who play too much cause their parents don't spend time with them.
read the whole thing and can relate fairly similarly
