That's the exact same thing my parents tell me!
Which is reason enough to do the opposite  :JC_cheesy:
Work in progress: Everything.
Alternative title: Nothing.

My parents support my drawings but tend to get angry when I spend too much time on pc for the forum. lol
They support my cosplay project, hell, even my aunt loves to sew with me. They like to see the Clamp artbooks and beautiful manga anime pictures but they don't read or watch anime/manga.

If I tried to get my parents to watch anime I'd end up being scolded for wasting their time for cartoon crap where they could have enjoyed Chinese movies, then again, you aren't me. :laughing11:

I'd never try that, dad would get lost too quickly, and mom would turn into one of the annoying fangirls.

The problem with my parents is that my mom would be the one getting lost and my dad would probably not be interested enough to pay attention. We were watching the episode where Hughes dies, and when I told my mom that Envy had disguised himself as Hughes' wife, she was kind of like...I dunno...OMG?

Okay, when it comes to anime my family is like this:
mom: No-interest, though she supports me...
dad: No-interest whatsoever... NO INTEREST!!!
step-mom: -||-
sister: -||-
step-brother: Has some interest in anime... Though he calls it manga movies :3
Work in progress: Everything.
Alternative title: Nothing.

I remember the reaction of my EX boyfriend and his family when they discovered my anime manga passion. "ooo you're still watching baby stuff?"

I carefully hide my anime passion from school parents because I'm pretty sure they'd attack it. My students know I draw, but I never gave  them my site url neither my internet pseudo. School parents would use it to follow me and since they think anime manga are dangerous and perverted, they'd try to attack or criticize me.
