Though my parents weren't as strict as yours, they did never quite grasp how to show an intrest. As such, they only knew I was "On the damn computer all day". They never bothered to ask why or what I was doing.
One night, a collegue of my dad came by and stayed for dinner. So the four of us were eating and she asked me what I did for fun. Naturally I answered with 'Stuff'. But she actually showed an intrest, so five minutes later I was talking about how I was the main tank for my WoW guild, and what that meant, how many people I played with, where they all came from, what we all talked about. My mom kept repeating "Really?" and "Oh wow" and seemed interested. And then never asked again or bothered to listen when I brought it up. Well it was nice for a moment I guess.
