Are your kids into audio?

I have 3 grown children (25,23,20) and none have an interest in audio and very little interest in music. Kind of bums me out. I am pretty new to the good audio part of the hobby, but have been into music for years. I have shown them all how to operate my system in case they want to enjoy their music, but they haven't ever turned it on. I even have a small dedicated room for listening.

My wife NEVER listens to music, she is wrapped up with the TV. I have asked them what they will do with my stuff after I am gone, and their response is "sell it". Kind of a depressing thought. So I have decided I am going to have to outlive them all. ;)

What is your spouse and kids thoughts on your hobby? I hope it is better than mine.

Hi Steve,
although my wife doesn't share my enjoyment of the hi-fi hobby, she does love music.We always have music playing in the house, and before having kids we would go out to see live music twice a week, now probably once a month or so.
As for the kids my daughter is two and at this stage loves music. I also have a dedicated room and she always wants to come up and listen to music with me, (partly to touch the buttons on the stereo :-(
Much to my suprise she seems to like music from the 70's most, it's quite funny to see a little two year old dancing(headbanging) away to led zeppelin or funkadelic. I hope she continues to enjoy music as much as i do.

Rob.
