I've made a few games in the past and my parents always thought it was a good way of working with my creativity and thought it could lead me to a career.

What do your parents think about it?

My mother doesn't care.

My father says it's good experience. I have aspirations to either make video games, or do computer engineering/programming, so I guess that would make a tiny bit of sense....

Well if you do it often and they pay attention to what you do on the computer than they should know.

My mom supports me 100%, eventhough she hates computers and gets quite annoyed when I talk too much about my projects.

I'd get annoyed too, to be honest. As much as I'd like to talk about my projects out loud to my friends, I know they wouldn't care becausethey aren't interested in that type of stuff. So I prefer to keep it in my head/tell MFGG about it.

My dad dosen't care, but he would like to see me make something in VB or Basic or HTML/CSS.

My mom dosen't care also, I try to tell her about what I do, she'll just say "uh huh...", "ahh!".

It isn't exactly fangame creation, but they're both genuinely interested in NCFC and my organizing of it along with Shadowman.

They don't like me on the computer all the time, but when there isn't a reason to kick me off they look at what I'm doing and say something like "good job".

My mom kinda supports me, and my dad has no idea that I program

My friends support me the most, although my grandma (suprisingly) supports me even more than most of my friends

She even offered to get a domain for me, which I'm still thinking about

They couldn't care less. When my mom (sometimes) sees me doing it, she just ask "What on earth are you doing?" and I never really bother to answer.
