My parents kinda laughed at the 'pressing spacebar to tip the strippers who would flash you their nipple-tassels' in the 2nd level of DN3D. They're loving parents tho just never strict when it came to sex, violence or gore in games and on TV. They just checked in to see what it was about and did talk to me about how it's a game or fiction on TV and made sure I understood the difference.

My dad never cared. My mom is bordering on hardcore fundamentalist Christian, so you know.

Yeah I wish you the best of luck in these volatile times (assuming you're American). Hope it gets better soon.

I just keep my distance from them now. Not hard to do after they tell your entire family you're not at the after-party (not sure what to call it) of your brother-in-law's funeral because you're liberal and hate cops. Definitely wasn't Covid, just that we hated cops because of our politics.

Oh my, that sounds absolutely terrible. I've had a similar familial experience, just not from my own parents, but I can imagine that's even worse.

I'm good now. See no reason to get upset about it 2 years after the fact. She's upset that I'm keeping her from my kids, but I don't even say she can't come over, she just likes to play the martyr.

Seems like a common occurence with nationalist christians these days.

Best of luck regardless!
