M: Are you close to your parents?
W: Yeah, we’re close. My father and I have always been close. Sometimes my mom and I don’t really see eye to eye. What about you?
M: Well, I think my parents definitely don’t understand me. My mother always says I’m perfect while my father often criticizes me for doing things wrong.
W: That’s interesting. Do you think that’s just a generational thing?
M: Well, I don’t know. My parents grew up in the 60’s. But they didn’t seem to know much about their times.
W: So they were kept away from all the big social activities?
M: Yeah. They grew up in a small town and neither of them knew anything about politics, even though my father’s father was a local judge and lawyer.
W: My parents grew up in the 60’s too, but my dad taught physics at the university and my mom ran a small bookstore in town. I guess they were the kind of people who were open to current events.
M: I’m jealous. Sometimes I feel a lot more educated than my parents, which is fine, but also uncomfortable at times.
W: I can imagine.
M: They just don’t understand some things. They haven’t experienced life in the same way I have.
W: You mean the traveling you’ve done?
M: Yeah. My dad thinks I ran away from home because I hated him or something ridiculous like that. I just wanted to see the world.
W: I told my dad once that I’d find a way to study in America and then live there forever.
M: My dad always tells me that I’d be really homesick if I studied at a European university.
W: And then you have to remind him that Europe is only 10 hours away by plane.
