   I deeply regret deciding to not push my musical tastes onto my daughters and letting them be free to find their own style. Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo and Blackpink haunt my nightmares.

     @fesshole Could be worse: heard about someone who primed their kid on Kraftwerk, but the kid listened to it like kids do (👶 "AGAIN!") and ruined it for him.

     @fesshole I wish all parents would just learn that subjective things are subjective, and not to try to force tastes on their kids.

     If they really liked your music you wouldn't have to push it on them.

     They are unique human beings. Let them be.

     @fesshole quick question for you, bud: are there a lot of female musicians in your surely wide-ranging “personal tastes” you wished you pushed on your daughters? are there *any*?

     @fesshole You did the right thing. Let them introduce you to their shit, now. You'll feel better for it and new music is the greatest.

     I'll admit I could have done without my daughters' One Direction phase, mind you.

     @fesshole Well at least they're not growing to resent your musical tastes, so that's a silver lining you can cling to I guess
