  I feel for every child that has to find out their parents are fucking stupid.

    Honestly, it sucks. I have never been able to ask advice from either of my parents as an adult. Of course as a teen they seemed dumb to me, but even then I recognized that I was a teenager and that perception was typical for my age. But they never got any smarter. Frankly, the older I’ve grown, the more like children my parents seem to me. As a kid they always told me I was super smart. Now as an adult, do they listen to me if I try to correct their mistakes? They do not. They’ve been suckers for cons my whole life.

    And no, I’m nowhere near as smart as they led me to think.

      My dad was the dumbest man I ever knew and he still had wonderful advice sometimes.

      I mean, I can say that to you here and you can only imagine with the limited data, but my dad was duuuuuuumb.

      There is value in our idiot parents. We just have to find it.

        My dad’s advice sums up basically to “come back to Jesus.” Mom was far worse, but she died recently.
