I am fortunate to live in a country where model railroading is a socially well received hobby, although you can always run into folks belittling grown-ups playing with trains. There are quite a few celebrities, including top politicians, who "confessed" their addiction in public. The wonderful Miniatur Wunderland show in Hamburg also helped to promote the hobby to a broader public. Having said that, I failed to pass on the bug to my son. While my wife likes my hobby (but does not share it), my son for a long time thought his dad is completely cuckoo. That changed a few years ago, when he picked up painting war hammer figures and building dioramas for them on a semi-professional level. Now he really appreciates my work, which makes me happy.
