Sounds okay. Would you think it weird if they wanted to read all day? Probably not i would guess. If they work and this is their way of unwinding it seems fine. My DD (age 19) can easily spend the whole day sitting on her bed watching crap TV if she hasn't got anything else to do. Same thing i reckon.

Why isn't it? I'm 28 and I intend to spend most of today playing Dragon Age Inquisition. My DC are out with grandparents and I'm up to date on household chores.
I may even branch out into designing my grey warden cosplay armour or writing some fanfiction.

My DH works in the game industry and would love to use all his free time gaming. He's 35.
Have you been living underneath a rock? I'm genuinely amused that you seem to think it's a childish activity. If it stopped at 16, then who are all the 18 rated games aimed at?

Normal. My 22 year old still does, and so do many of his mates. As long as it's on their day off, therefore not preventing them from holding down a job, I don't see a problem. It's just their way of relaxing.
My lad also watches telly, goes out, sees friends, pub, concerts etc. I'd worry if he didn't do anything else at all.
