Not now. I was though until my late 20s.
My parents are both far right Republicans and I am a far left Democrat, as well as, my sister.
It is difficult sometimes with my mother because she has always enjoyed discussing politics. We always try to agree to disagree. I do give her credit that we differ on fundamental issues and not fly off the hand stuff. Like we had an in-depth discussion a couple months ago about my being pro-regulation and she wasn't.
My sister and I sometimes talk about how my mother holds her beliefs. You see, our mother is the most intelligent woman, well person, I have ever known. It amazes us that she is a Republican.
With that said, in deep discussions, my mother, being over 60 does still hold some old anti-communist thoughts from growing up in a childhood where everybody thought they needed a bomb shelter. lol I kind of credit her views on that old-school mentality.

Great Q: In my case yes, but not because it was the way I was raised. My parents always encouraged me to think for myself and make my own judgments regarding my political beliefs.
When it comes down to it, I am a socially liberal fiscally conservative Democrat and very proud of it.

No. I am a Democrat, my father and his whole family are Republicans, while my mother is not interested in politics (not sure about her family, we don't often talk about politics there.)

Nope
I can actual think for myself.
I don't need political indoctrination from my parents or anyone else.

well my parents arent really political. My step father is a minister so he believes in helping everyone, which I am so not. And my mother thinks that toilet cleaners should be making really good wages for some reason, which I do not.
