I've had people say things like "you're too old for that", until I tell them
about the creations the community does & the fact that adults work FOR LEGO as
the modelbuilders; then the questioning people usually think of Legoland parks
and say "Oh, yeah!" I've never had parents throw stuff away on me. I'm 29
(I'll be 30 Dec. 31st), and STILL am crazy about LEGO. You can show you parents
internet sites like lugnet and other "Adult Fan of Lego (AFOL) sites so they can
see it's not babyish. I hope they'll understand it's a great hobby.
