What happens after they get away from mommy and daddy?

Fun fact: you are just as biased by not even giving this a chance , simply because in your opinion it's ' right biased based '.

Semantics.

Plenty of independent minded people who want to conserve good aspects of the country and humanity without subscribing to a grifting party that does anything but.

I don’t see how they’ve been conserving money with record spending. Or conserving freedoms with things like the patriot act.

Call a group by any name you want, but actions speak louder.


Oh, I never said that republicans are actually conservatives. On the contrary, nobody in DC is a true conservative, with may a very few exceptions - and they (if they exist) are drowned out by the sellouts.

True conservatives are few and far between. And i was referring strictly to what was referenced in the OP.

That’s fair, even though some ideologies have representatives, it doesn’t mean people in the same group are an exact reflection of them.

But my original question was how are kids from parents who seem more independent from dogmatic ideologies, or have a tinge of agnosticism. Not to say they’re not opinionated, but they just don’t cling to a group as hard.

As adults, it’s easy to say there’s nuance to things, like sometimes you make decisions based on what the alternatives are. That may not mean you’re thrilled with the outcomes, but through life experience you measure it against what else could be the option.

That’s harder for kids to understand. So I can understand why they’d be skeptical of their parents decisions and sometimes that can be a source of conflict, especially if the parent thinks they no best and are trying to pass along their beliefs.

There’s a lot of people in my family I disagree with, usually that’s not a source of contention (harder to say for when I was younger). Some of my siblings and cousins can’t let that go though, and that’s not unique to one side of the political spectrum. Some people see it as a sign of damnation in the after life or the current one.

I just wonder if mental health is different for kids in environments where ideology isn’t as charged. And to be honest, I wouldn’t say with a high degree of confidence that’s the case, just curious.

Always love it when someone tries to think for me.

Do you think the OP bothered to research the source of the article for this thread?

"Know your source. Know the bias of your source".

I bet you think it only matters to me if it leans Right.

Nice... It makes perfect sense, ignorance is bliss...

As if being well adapted to a sick society was a show of mental health... Nah...

Also it's known that conservatives conserve their illusions longer, réalisation of truth take longer to hit home...

It's just retards that haven't yet understood how utterly #ed they are...

The ignorant are still in bliss, everyone else noticed it's over...

I am afraid I do not and would appreciate to know why society is sick and if it ever has been healthy.

So you think it's a healty society?

Human Value assignment via centralized exchange medium.

Justice that ends at imaginary boarders.

Morals upheld only trough menace.

I guess if the majority is well adapted, that makes it healty?

It's like suppressing a depression with drugs. Watch what happens when the drugs run out. Progressive are already going trough withdrawal because they see the shortage coming it will be a strain on anyone's psyche but the conservatives will be forced into a cold turkey that will probably be deadly to many...

So yeah, the study makes sense...

No I don't think it's a healthy society. Funny that you think this, because I asked this question.

I just wanted to hear from you why you so often repeat that and where your opinion (about) this is coming from.

People use to try and validate their opinions by stating how successful and well adapted they are to society...

It needs repeating... apparently... Sadly...

Conservatives raising with conservative values isn't 'programming'. If you want to talk about indoctrination and programming ... the left wing is all up in it. The trans fad ... Israel is bad and Palestine is good ... feelings are more important than grades ... everyone gets a trophy ... sucky work ethic ... etc etc.

The key is a two parent household. When you have two well behaved parents, which conservative values tend to lean toward, you have kids who come out better than the liberals who think being a single parent is just fine. Kids miss a lot when there is only one parent. They need both parents being positive role models for them in the house. It's more stable.

We are homeschooling my grandkids. They stay here half the time. Its kind of a pain in the ass, but its worth the extra work in the long run.


We homeschooled until fifth grade and then did Catholic school until high school graduation. I was nervous about doing it, but it worked out great!

So they are generalizing from that study group that very conservative parents adopt very 'authoritative' type parenting styles but the 'authoritative' parenting style IMO can be adopted by any political ideology across the board. So I take this study with a grain of salt because other factors are involved and we can't just pick and choose which factor we want to highlight to make a personal biased point.

[from your source]



Parental political ideology is another strong predictor of parenting style.1 Liberal parents
had the lowest scores, meaning they were the least likely to endorse items indicating warm,
disciplined parenting. Just 40% of liberal parents scored above average on the index,
whereas 71% of very conservative parents and 56% of conservative parents did. Very
liberal parents score roughly the same as moderate parents (48% and 49%, respectively).
Disciplinary action shows the largest political divide. For example, 80% of very
conservative parents disagreed with the statement “my child often gets their way when we
have a conflict” compared to 66% of conservative parents, 64% of moderate parents, 53%
of liberal parents, and 55% of very liberal parents. Very conservative parents are also
somewhat more likely to report giving their child hugs and kisses every day. Generally
speaking, political conservatism is associated with more responsive and discipline-oriented
parenting, or what the child development literature would characterize as an “authoritative”
style, in contrast to permissive or authoritarian styles. This relationship between
conservativism and parenting remains significant even after controlling for an extensive list
of parental demographic and socio-economic measures.


It also appears that this institute is centre-right and so their chosen study groups are suspect.

Well , i can't really say if that's a fact , what I do know is that I've been raised more conservative myself in the old fashion way.
my two sons both are on Christian schools luckily they do not uphold the lgtbq woke rules as far as I know.

Sadly living this kind of era that makes young children addicted to online relationships as the physical relationships I build when I was their age saddens me sometimes, but hey that's the society we live in today

But we still love to play board games doing manual labor and camping trips with nature

One wants to be a farmer and the other wants to become a " doctor, economist , fornite champion of the year ,make up your mind child " as for my daughter she' studies sociology

And I'm the crazy sometimes conservative dad that kicks around puberty

Sigh...
