Default Unsupportive family members

Do any of you younger guys have a tough time dealing with extremely unsupportive family members when it comes to playing poker? I'm only 20 and a student at a local university and I had to move out of my rents place and live with my bro just to get away from my parents screaming at me all the time for playing poker. I don't think some people will ever understand the difference between playing poker for a living and playing slots.

"If you're going to be living here you're not going to be on the computer playing poker all the time."

"Then I'll ship it crucial elsewhere."

"What? Don't talk to me like that!"

"Muck 'em say uhhhh..."

"You're not making any sense. You have a serious gambling problem."

"LAwlzDOnkaments."

Maybe they realize you're already 50k in debt from playing online?

I think it's because they notice I don't do too much other than my schoolwork, workout and play poker. Most of my friends are real social and like to go to trendy clubs and bars; I'd rather just stay home and play poker online. I like small crowds, not big ones.
