What do you disagree with each of your parents on the most?

[A18]

Politically (hence the inclusion in this forum).

[Cashcow]

Mom: Guns

Dad: Welfare

[Jake]

Mom: Gays, Patriot Act

Dad: The other party.  He listens to Hannity and Rush all day, and then parrots the things they say "Democrats are evil" back to me. 

[PBrunsel]

My parents will vote for a Republican no matter their beleifs, I would not. My brother says to me, "You are the kind of guy who elected Clinton by voting Perot."

[MHS2002]

Mom: death penalty

Dad: free trade

[TeePee4Prez]

Mom: FCC regs
Dad: Abortion, gay marriage

[ian]

My mom voted against gay marriage in my state and when I asked her why, she, being an attorney, said basically that it would be too difficult to change the legalities to include homosexuals in the definition of marriage.  My response was: since when do equal rights come after ease?  I won't let her forget that she voted against gay marriage for the dumbest reason ever.
My dad, however, supports keeping religion in schools and I HATE that.  I grew up in rural Arkansas and got a bunch of crap because my school ignored the laws of the separation of c&s.  I was the victim of all sorts of bigotry because I am Jewish in a school that brought in fire and brimstone speakers, and my dad thinks that this isn't as important as keeping morals in schools.  He's agnostic, basically, but actually thinks that if there was prayer in schools, things like the Columbine incident would never happen.

It would have to be about the nation of Germany with my father. From 1943-1945, the Nazis moved him from concentration camp to concentration camp to stay ahead of the advancing Americans and Soviets. He was there because he was a Jew. Since then he has hated the Germans regardless if they had any part in holocaust or not. I like Germany and I speak German. I tell him that Germany has done a lot to make amends with those that suffered. It doesn't matter. He won't budge. Perhaps he will change when we go to Germany in April to honour the 60th anniverary of the liberation of Dachau by the Americans. He hasn't been to Europe since he fled Poland in 1946 to escape the Soviets. He hates them as well.

My mother died of cancer when I was 5, so I don't know what her views would have been.

[AuH2O]

mom- guns (somewhat)
dad- foreign policy

[Josh/Devilman88]

mom- guns
dad- free trade.

[Gabu]

Mom: Not really sure.  We don't disagree a lot on political matters.

Dad: Absolute anything involving economic matters.

[angus]

mother and I usually agreed.  same with my father.  I share the moral value system of my parents on big wedge issues, such as abolition of capital punishment, and on individual responsibility.  one area of disagreement regards the benefit of union membership.  they were both raised by flyover-country small-town Minnesota iron-ore mining families, and even in his white-collar adulthood, my father could never get past the blue-collar moral value system his immigrant parents taught him.  Same goes for my mother.  The other issue on which my parents and I would disagree is that they felt like Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon, specifically, and more generally all Republicans, are lying, sociopathic, plutocratic, secretive opportunists whose main interest lay in making wealthier their already wealthy benefactors.  I do not share that view.

[Ebowed]

Mother: Not really sure, to be honest.  Her opinions seem to change a lot.  I do know, however, that she does support the death penalty, which I vehemently disagree with.  I believe she also supports strict gun control, which I disagree with.

Father: Abortion, gun control, the death penalty, euthanasia.  My dad has this warped version of morals where he believes that legalizing drugs would be bad for society, but somehow believes that abortion should be a woman's choice (he "personally" disagrees with it, however).  My dad also believes gay marriage is a constitutional right, while I think the government should get out of marriage.  He may seem lenient towards gays at first, but he opposes gays in the military serving openly, for whatever reason.

[PADem]

Mom: Taxes - she likes big Bush/Reagan style tax cuts

Dad: Almost all areas of economic policy and some social.

[Platypus]

Mum-Our relationship with america. I'm very pro, she's extremly cautious. I don't think she's anti-american, but she doesn't trsut the US one bit and she despises Bush. In terms of the alliance, she's very very dubious it's useful to Australia.

Dad-Don't get me started...we disagree so fundamentally on so many things, and yet he votes ALP :S

[Gustaf]

Not much really. I disagree with my dad on the environment, mostly, I'm more worried about it than he is and also to an extent on issues concerning terrorism and foreign policy where he's a lot more hawkish than I am.

[MaC]

mom: guns, somewhat, but not completely on economic equality

dad:the reality of political parties.  He still thinks Republicans are small government
