Do your parents like what you like/liked

Post by Worm of Despite »

Aside from my dad liking a lot of the bands I like and my grandfather liking Shawshank Redemption and Scarface, nobody else has an active interest in things I find interesting. How about you and yours?

Parents, do your kids like TCTC? Parents with teenagers, do your kids like you? :lol:

My parents and I had few likes in common...but my children and I share quite a few similar tastes in music, literature, and drama. :) Neither have read TCTC yet, they have been a bit young for that, but I have been thinking of getting my older one started on Donaldson and Martin this summer. :)
As far as I know, my children like me. Now that it is summer they will start my day every day by running into my room and jumping onto the bed to give me a great big group hug. :) I certainly love them. :)
Love as thou wilt.

My mother and I shared similar intrests in movies and television when I was growing up. Though I had 8 brothers and sisters, my mom and I went to see several science fiction/ horror films together. My Dad and I have very little in common outside of golf and football. My daughter (ProRider514) and I share a great many things. She has an interest in science fiction and fantasy books and we are both die hard simpsons and futurama fans. She and I went to see The Phantom Menace 4 times together. :D

Definitely a chip off the old block. She's learning to play basslines from U2 and Nirvana as I type this. I'm so proud. :D

Really? That's sad. So, can I get their phone number? I'd really like to know how they got you to shut up! :D

Wow, that's so sad. They have 12 step programs for that, though; you'll be free of the addiction in no time. :lol:

LOL! No, you wouldn't want their number. They're not the most... what is the word? Unviolent? Yes, unviolent people in the world... tip... don't have anything to do with them. I got out of there as soon as I could! :D

Yup, that's pretty much what Satan and Lord FOul said about their Creators, too. 8O

LOL! I suppose that's true... When I say parents... I mean my mom, and step-dad. I don't actually know my dad. But my sister thinks he's nice. But she has a pretty twisted opinion on what is nice... they probably cook babies together or something...

It's always the step-father, eh?

My Dad is a politcally active guy (adopted dad, that is).

My kids (9 years old) like a lot of the same stuff I do...my son in particular. But I spend a lot of time with them...coaching their "theatre team" etc.

My dad and I share music and cars as hobbies, but he never liked me collecting comics.
