Hassle form parents for playing computer games?

I kept having arguments with my parents about gaming, late night gyms etc! What did I do? Move out! I was 22 when I moved out and been on my own for nearly two years now! No one tells me anything and I do what and how I want. Solution to your problem? Grow some balls and move out! You're 33 for gods sake! You will have less money to throw around but you will have your own peace. And stop looking for excuses. My mum is getting old too but id better spend leads yet better quality time with her than sit there arguing and hating each other.
 
Why not try getting your parents into gaming and if that fails give your dad some Viagra to keep him occupied. Should that fail just poo through your own letterbox and pack a bag.
 
At your age, I suspect no matter how he has been in the past he just wants you out. You will probably find you get on fine once you are standing on your own two feet.

I'd assume that you have a massive bank balance, enough for a deposit, sounds like you have a proof of income. Move out.

Unless you haven't got a penny?
 
Parents can do strange things with kids, guess im lucky that whilst mine insisted on following the game age ratings to the letter, at least now I rarely get greif. Indeed the occasional reminder that im up late (which is normally delivered circa 1am so fair) or a polite request to keep the noise down if im talking on Skype (again delivered at 1am and makes me feel guilty ive heen rude enough to disturb).

Technology adoption seems to depend on personality/career rather than age, and if your dads never had the personality to accept himself or others adopting technology then its not changing now. Tbf he's just doing what he thinks is the best way to get you sorted in life, and what with parenthood not coming with a guide and all he cant be right all the time.
 
Maybe your dad thinks there is more to life than gaming and you just working. Maybe he wants you to get out there and get in a relationship and wants grandkids etc.

He may be going about it the wrong way but in fairness he does have a point - you are 33 and it won't be too long before you realise that maybe growing old by yourself is not really the best thing or the healthiest thing.

My gf can't wait for me to buy the new batman so she can sit and watch me play it and enjoy the awesome storyline. She did exactly the same with tlou. You just have to pick the right gf ;)
 
You need to grow a pair and start the living the life you want not the ones your parents impose on you.

Not moving out until 33 because they told your renting is a waste? Get the hell out now while you still have your thirties to enjoy.

Working in IT in London? Need a deposit? Go contracting ffs, easy money.
 
I'm 21 and parents don't really care how much I play as long as I passed my BTEC course and got onto a degree course which I did.
 
Yep time you moved out. But even my wife thinks I play to many games, but does accept its one of my ways to relax.

At 33 you should be long gone. At 25 I have my own place and married...
 
Is this your dad?

Married at 25? To me that is crazy, for you maybe not. As someone else said it depends on your personal situation OP. No right or wrong age to move out by.
