Blog #6- Justin Borrero

"They seemed to know that my education was separating us from one another, making it difficult to resume familiar intimacies. Mixed with the instincts of parental pride, a certain hurt also communicated itself-too private ever to be adequately expressed in words, but real nonetheless."



I disagree with both sentences that were in this quote completely. The first sentence is absolutely ridiculous, basically saying that they were becoming too smart to talk or hang out with their parents. Simply learning things that your parents didn’t know or learn doesn’t make you too good to talk to them, they are the people who gave your life and now you’re basically saying that you’re done with what they have provided with me and have passed it and ready to move on. Your parents are the first friends you make when you enter this world and the last you will remember when you leave. They should be the people you always want to be in contact with no matter what. Besides they’re millions of topics in the world to talk about, how hard would it be to find one or two that you can relate to your parents with.
The second sentence is ridiculous as well. If there are any people in the world that you could talk to about anything it would be your parents. The love they have for you will surpass any judgment they might have for you. If you honestly feel as if it’s hard to converse with your parents anymore because your education level is too high, there is something you can talk about right there. If you can at least do that I’m sure you and your parents will fix this problem with ease
