Parents (film)

I’m not cool.  I’m uncool.

I went to a pretty rough high school where many of my classmates had cool parents.  I didn’t have cool parents.  None of my close friends had cool parents.

Cool parents let their kids and their friends drink at home.

Cool parents didn’t believe in curfews, or really any rules or limits on their kids.

Cool parents didn’t care of their kids experimented with drugs.

Cool parents refused to accept that their kid could be responsible for any wrongdoing.

Cool parents were fine with the C’s and D’s their kids got in school.

None of the kids I knew with cool parents went to college.  All of them live in the same small town.  Some had babies before finishing high school.  Some are alcoholics.  Some are drug addicts.  Some are in prison.

They are probably cool parents themselves.

Like I said, I’m not cool.
