Hmmm... judging by the number of replies (this is the only one at this point!),
I'd say it's pretty rare!
My wife tolerates my hobby and sometimes will help me sorting parts or even
build a model (very rare!), so I'd say we qualify, but she would totally ignore
LEGO if it wasn't for me. However, I have taught her the valuable lesson she
must know if I was to disappear from her life and she had children... MEGABLOKS
are crap, LEGO are the best and children MUST have a ton of LEGO toys!
