I had always been (pretty much) a straight-A student up until the point at which my (increasingly conservative, Christian) confiscated some D&D alike books which I had bought with my own money around the age of 14. It broke our relationship, I’ve never achieved what I could have done (although I’m OK by most measures) because I lost all motivation and we communicate occasionally, acrimoniously once every decade or so. Really I don’t give a f*k about them any more. I just don’t understand why people put such unnecessary barriers between themselves and their children. It’s just a sodding book.
