Re: Does anyone else have parents that are weird about the internet?

[(Anonymous)]

Your parents sound like assholes, tbh. Since you mention that both your parents use the Internet themselves and seem fine with it, you might want to ask yourself... Is this really about the internet being a problem, or is it YOU they don't respect and therefore any source that's cited by you gets dismissed?

Now fair warning, I can be a difficult asshole when people pull stuff like this, but the approach I take would be extremely polite and calm, but condescending. Gently, with a smile, remind your parents that it's 2023 and technology and communication has moved on since their youth. Remind them that every single reputable paper, magazine, scholarly journal and every single respected news outlet in the developed world has had an established online presence for YEARS. Chuckle indulgently when your Dad cites FB as his source for anything ("Oh, dad!"), ditto when your Mom mentions blogs. ("Wow, do people still write blogs in this day and age?")

And if they're the kind of parents who ever need your help in anything remotely computer or new technology related, cut them off ASAP. You don't need to be their tech support if they treat you like an idiot. One last thing: stay in school, study hard, aim for financial independence and anything else that means they don't have any power over you. Your life will be a lot less annoying if you've got the upper hand.
