Well I try to lay low and do everything in order to calm them, I know better than just 'doing what I want whenever I want' [;)] I'll be off of school in two years, and will then hold a master in translation, which will lead to a job starting in between 45 and 50 k a year (in CAD that is), which is really good. I intend of getting a summer job in translation next year, which should pay good and allow me to move out. I'm responsible and I do budget my money, for now I have all the books I need about model railroading (and I have this forum too), so the next books I buy will be when I really start planning a layout. I won't be buying any other train stuff until then either, as I am saving money to be comfortable when I do leave home. I think the major problem they have with it (beside my mother fearing that I cut my whole arm in the process), is that it's somewhat a loner hobby and they would like me to get out more. [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Tatans I wonder what your parents would say if you told them you were giving up model railroading and decided to sit in a bar all day, hmmmm.[/quote] Actually, I'm not sure if they wouldn't prefer that..... Anyway, I think part of the problem is that they are overprotective, still treating me like a teenager but wanting me to act more grown up while not liking it a bit when I do, a paradox really.
