As I've gotten older I've noticed more and more flaws in my parents thinking. My mom doesn't have a bad personality, but she is dumb enough to buy into just about every fad. My dad is just really ignorant in a lot of topics I've noticed from the dinner table talks we have. They're okay parents I suppose... I don't know, I never really look at family as family, just as people. I would say they're average. Aren't nearly as gullible as OP's parents.
[QUOTE="Locke562"]My parent's are Religious Fundamentalists...harashawnAnd that makes them stupid, how? :? Is that a trick question?
Both my parents are college grads, but they refuse to admit when they are wrong on little things, like grammar.
One time me and my mom got in an argument over when you can you can recieve social security payments, I was right and my mom acted like I cursed here out started yelling and etc. But they're usually pretty intelligent.
My parents may not be intellectually smart as they've never had much schooling after high school, but I've never considered them to be stupid.
[QUOTE="harashawn"][QUOTE="Englando_IV"] Is that a trick question?Englando_IVSo, people with faith are stupid? No, people who take the bible literally word for word as history are stupid. *puts on his dunce hat* >_>
No, my parents are smart. My dad is good with math and computers and knows a lot about sports, politics, and history. My mom is good with English and medicine and she knows a lot about theatre, art, and various sciences.t3hrubikscubeThey're almost too smart. Are they aliens? :o
In my opinion, only spoiled kids don't appreciate their parents. That's why I won't spoil mine when I have kids. I hate those kids who get twenty video games and a new system at a store, but still want more. Also, I hate those kids whop yell at their parents when in front of their friends, like they're cool and their parents are really embarassing.thequietguyTypically speaking this is extremely true. Even my counseling classes have stated that overly-spoiled children have less respect for their parents.

I get embarassed, and Im not even the parent.
My parents are both intelligent and well educated, my father is a chemist and my mother was the editor of a quilting magazine here in the UK for over 15 years. They are also open minded, not at all judgemental and they are my best friends and Grand Viziers. I am very lucky and I know it.

Smart? Not really. What they have is experience. A lot. Neither of them went to college but they both work for colleges and make decent money.
No.
My my mom was a straight A+ Student with AP classes. My step dad pretty much raised himself and kind of went to the wrong road (drug abuse) but he's learned his lesson. My step dad knows a lot about the body... kinda like House.
