We share that challenge with adult kids. I included the section at the end after sharing a draft of this with the one of my four who is most open to reason. He said that it seemed like rage bait.
I agree we need to persevere anyway. When it bothers me, I remind myself that Thomas Sowell was a communist until he was 30.
My oldest is 27 and my youngest is 18, and they are still in the stage where they have everything figured out. Lol. They see me as more red-pilled, but that denies what I went through going back to grad school, which was horrible and life-changing.
I suspect they don't want to think about that because it makes the world feel out of control.
Because it is out of control.
We'll see how time changes their perceptions. Looking back, I had plenty to learn at that age, and I didn't want my parents to point that out.
Thanks! It is fun to write, but it's hard to get the balance right.
