Would you support your child’s hobby if you knew nothing about it and weren’t interested?

What if his hobby was stalking and murdering women? Not something I would support.

[MountainsofMark]

That is not something I consider a hobby. I get you point obviously but I meant other, not harmful things

[NoDecision]

Well hobbies aren't usually harmful, except to maybe your pocketbook, such as collecting cars as a hobby. But someone else's hobby is none of my business and I would most likely support it, depending on what circumstances it would have to my child's life.

[tiredpanda]

Yes. I’d learn about it and show interest because if it’s important to someone I love, it’s important to me too.

[slatyb]

Almost certainly, why not unless it's absurdly expensive.

[EmmaMary]

Absolutely.
