Does anybody else have this problem?
I have a degree in computers and make my living from working with computers. Therefore, any time I so much as look at a computer off hours, people accuse me of "playing." Doesn't matter if I'm integrating PayPal into a storefront to make some extra money or fixing the complainer's own printer that they've fucked up by, fittingly enough, playing with it.
So anytime I'm over at my parents' house for a weekend (they live a few hours away), I have to do absolutely nothing until my mother goes to bed at 7PM or else I hear about how all I do is "play" on the computer.
Should I stop helping them (they're elderly) or is there some way to pound it into their heads that there's a difference between work and Angry Birds?

It's not about them actually thinking you are playing and all about having a way of being shitty to you.

You live away from home and give a fuck what your parents think you do on the computer?
I think it's time to grow up

Sounds like your parents are highly negative and you need to distance yourself from them
