I've only been playing rpgs for 39 years, I don't think my mom, or Dad, have any idea what a Roleplaying game is. I've been collecting Star Wars merchandise for 49 years and I swear my dad still thinks it's just a fad.

Two incidents stand out:
- My brother and I were playing Traveller, and smack-dab in the middle of an uproarious home invasion—my mom burst in, shouting, "If that's how you're going to play this game, you're not going to play it anymore!"
We promised we would play nice... but really we just played quietly.
- Instead of algebra homework I was rolling up an anti-paladin, boombox blasting a Judas Priest cassette. Mom cracked my bedroom door and looked around at the books and dice and sulfurous braziers. "Is this... devil worship?" she asked.
"No, mom—it's just a game."
She closed the door and we never spoke of it again.
She was a great mom—she just didn't want the neighbors to know her kids were serial killers hailing Satan.

My mom didn't "get it", and was very concerned (via social pressure) during the Satanic Panic when I was Anne Franking my friends' D&D books while their parents were burning the ones they could find in the church parking lot.Two incidents stand out:

To be honest, I haven’t looked much into DCC because I didn’t like the idea of having to control multiple PCs 😅 ... but lots of people really seem to like it, and rolling all those different interesting dice does sound appealing to me, so maybe I should look more into it!
You only play multiple characters in a 0-level adventure, and they die rather quickly so you'll be down to one character fast.
