I support fan fic writing. Forst of all, we have to learn some place. Its like anything else you do, like base ball, you start in the little leagues and get int he practice to get into the big leagues. Football, you start in highschool, then go to college and then national, basket ball....no matter what you do you have to start osmewhere. Learn the basic rules and grow.
I don't think that I will ever grow out of fan fic. I am all ready 24 yrs old. It may seem childish to some, but not to myself. I can always learn. Fan fic is basically my testing grounds. If I have an original plot, I'll do an AU fan fic and see if anyone will read it. If they do than I can go and write the original story. Sometimes I don't do that though. Sometimes I get the muse to write original stuff from a fan fic.
Fan Fic is a tool to use. I think that Anne Rice would have a huge, bigger than she does now, fan audience if she had allowed for fan fic to be written. Thats why 'Twishite' is so popular, because of the fan fic and the tweenies wanting to live out their Vampyre dreams.
I'd let my stuff be ficced. Just htink about how small the HP world would be if Rowling didn't let her books be ficced. I think that its a great marketing tool. If someone, unknown to HP comes across a fan fic and start reading it (thats how I slightly got into Gundam Wing) than they'll get curious about the original works and pick them up.
