I'm 42.

If my kid came home as an "eSports player" I'd mock him relentlessly and cut him out of everything.

I would first see how good my daughter would be and if that is good to make real money, I'd let them. But! They still would need to finish school and learn a real job if everything would fail.

eSports is shockingly hard and takes a lot of talent and hard work to be good at. The chance of getting rich from it is about the same as being a professional player in any sport. That being said, just like sports, there are local teams that are chill and can be a ton of fun. Don't shut a kid down for doing what they love.
