I respect her opinion, but I think shes' wrong.

I would hope nobody who comes to Gamefaqs would agree with her because a lot of people would also say the same about video games. "They're for children, why are you still playing them as an adult" I've heard it many, many times.

People are allowed to still enjoy the things they liked as kids. I was 10 and knew a friend who loved Monty Python...he still does. As a kid I loved Xena Warrior Princess (not for kids) and still do, lol.

I definitely agree with this. They're people who look down upon others for playing video games because they're "childish", yet they often spend their free time smoking weed and getting high. Hell some years ago Bill Maher was trying to lecture people about growing up and his favorite pastime is smoking pot. I'm not judging anyone that smokes pot, weed or whatever. What anyone does during their spare time is their business. But just like how some people think video games are childish, they're also people that think smoking pot and weed is childish as well. Even if it isn't. So there's the sayings "Pot(no pun intended) calling the kettle black" or "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones".

I remember one Gamefaqs user criticizing people that played Kingdom Hearts and I came across this same user saying how much he liked the Spyro games. Which often gets labeled as a "childish" series by "mature adults" as well.
