tell them to shut the fuck up
that's a canned response, but the more you do it the less they will shelter you.
Tell [B][I]them[/I][/B] that. Stand up to your parents.
The last time I stood up to them, dad took my PS3, sold all my games, and he now uses it as his Blu-Ray player... -.-"
Even though I have my PC chained to my desk, the day I bought the chain, he went and bought a pair of bolt-cutters.
call the police next time they take an item away, the police can't actually do anything but it will scare the fuck out of your parents

Tell your dad to take a hike, and tell your mum/mom to get back to the kitchen.
Actually, with all the bad rep I'm giving them, they're pretty nice people... If you don't make them angry. Then they yell for at least three hours, beating a dead horse into the ground.

But I'm not worried. The only thing they could come up with last time was a waste of time and money, but it is my money, and they have no argument against me spending what I earn.
So, I'll most likely have the game by next week. No big deal.
Your not wasting your time though, it's something you will enjoy, and money wise, if it's your money, why should they have a decision on what you are doing with it.
Just keep explaining everything to them, don't go crazy and argue, otherwise it'll turn out worse.
If all else fails, I still have a friend who agreed to pick up a copy. But I won't need to use him, as I can reason this with them...
I hope.
[QUOTE=woolio1;21509762]Gah... Now my mom's gone paranoid too. Oh well, last time I tried to convince them to let me play WoW, the only argument they could come up with was that it was a waste of time and money.
However, if it isn't their money, what should they care?[/QUOTE]
I feel for you man too. My parents are overprotective too.
Just keep pushing them a little bit more each time.

Tell them that it's a good way to spend your time and money, instead of smoking weed.

Seriously, how old are you?
[QUOTE=Bluetooth;21515240]Seriously, how old are you?[/QUOTE]
15. 16 in three months.
By far, old enough to play whatever game I want... If I didn't have my parents standing in the way.

your parents are kinda irrational
[QUOTE=Anonymuzz;21516523]your parents are kinda irrational[/QUOTE]
they're like that and you're 15?
i bet they're catholic
That's what I was thinking. Maybe my parents are ridiculously laid back, but I started playing around that age, and had been playing MMOs for a while before hand and they didn't care.
It's nice, if I'm honest.

I wasn't born a gamer, I was made. wasn't all that interested when I was a kid, but my dad kept buying me games consoles for christmas/birthday, forcing me to read walkthroughs from games magazines for resident evil when I was like 6 - untill it eventually stuck. now he never games and I spend more time on the computer than sleeping.
I wish I was still raiding. :ohdear:
My guild would of done ICC by now, and I would have T10.
