21. One thing I have noticed is that if the parent is conservative then the kids go liberal.

It really has to do with the teenage rebellion. The same can go for liberal parents having there kids go hard right wing.

My parents were staunch liberals and I loved Reagan and republicans as a teenager.

I think this has to do with evolution.

I'm a liberal now after having life experiences that showed me conservatives just hate people for a tax break.
