Experience with my own kids. Tell them something that will improve their life. They don't listen.
Hear it from a friend or youtube streamer? Its now law with them. This is the way of things.
The only viable solution: become YouTube streamer.
Does not work, children always do that with their parents.
… with a mask and using a pseudonym
I find the approach really matters. Though I am not going to say my kids agree with everything I say ti them, they at least listen.
My Dad does this and its more cringe, especially because its abt his cult religion. Its been 15 years, he is still doing it and he only has a handful of followers.
I’d drink to more context to this story
My parents hate gay people and I'm a flaming homosexual. We have had so many fights over the past 6 years I've been out. My Dad thinks he is intelligent and well spoken while he ia saying the most sexist things. His video streams are 99% of the time with this christian deacon that is a part of his cult saying that gay marriage is a sin and women should be child caretakers, while my mom is making 3x his salary as an engineer. They both come off smart on the outside but it crumbles when you hear they're awful opinions like "the rich deserve to get richer" smh. If I tell you his domination he should be the first YouTube result
Do is I say, not as I do.
That one popped in my mind.
Hope you are doing good regardless of the opinion of your father.
That abt sums it up! I have had good and bad years, I just got divorced at 25, still debating if this year is bad or good
Nooo. First leave your family, then become a YouTube streamer to teach your kids.
