I would say that my parents are very supportive. I cover all the expenses now that I have a job but back in the day they would get me like 1/4 case of paint if I really wanted to play. Now I have sweet fields at my house and whenever we get together my mom will buy us chips and drinks(I lover her soooo much). They also look like their listening which means a lot. I know that they hardly ever listen because one time I told my Dad something really important but he did'nt do it because he said he heard something that sounded like paintball at the begining and did'nt listen which is really funny. It means so much because they have no interest in it but they still stand there and pretend that they do. I'm proud to say that I love my mom and dad if they do or don't support me fully. You only have so much time in life peeps, don't wish that you would have said "I love you" that one extra time.

Thats cool. I wish i had a big enough backyard to make a field

My parents help me out with paint and field fees but they have not put one dime in my mag, and i dont want them to. I appreciate my mag alot more that way.

lol, you kids who get stuff... your parents must be well off, cause i don't think that i would ever let my mother pay a penny for paintball. 1)it very expensive 2) i for some reason feel better as a person to walk onto a field with somthing that is truly mine. And its kinda hard to have a supportive dad when you don't have a father around at all. So i suggest you go and hug your parents again and again and maybe a third time cause you are all ever so lucky.

Be thankful you have any money at all to spend on paintball. I have sold more things on Ebay to pay for paintball than I care to think about (See signature below).
The one way I did learn to save money is to buy EVERYTHING used. I even bought my Level 10 used. Just some advice from a poor baller.

I agree

I agree with thevilduk and Bulldog fully. CRog075, it's not really not my field it's my neighbors. I simply asked him and he was cool with it (he's the man). One's like a cow pasture we made a speedball field and the other is 2 two story houses he lets us play in with 15 bunkers all the way around, pill boxes ect. but that's a different story.

Yeah, my parents support me playing since it's something productive to do. However they have never once paid for one thing related to paintball besides a few things for christmas. Like others have said it just feels better to show up at a field knowing that you paid for everything yourself and can truly appreciate it, unlike some of these kids with angels that their mommies bought for them.
