What should I do if my (very) conservative Grandpa offends me by saying my Liberal ways are wrong?

I just recived an e-mail from him and it makes Liberals look extremely bad in a biased way. I found it really offensive and want this to stop, but i don't want to be offensive! Help!!!What should I do if my (very) conservative Grandpa offends me by saying my Liberal ways are wrong?
Grandpa is wiseWhat should I do if my (very) conservative Grandpa offends me by saying my Liberal ways are wrong?
I used to get those emails from people who were trying to get a reaction out of me. I just ignore them and go about my business.
A lot of people are turned off by Conservative philosophy because of the messenger.





The media presents Liberal ideas as oh-so-progressive and enlightened. However, a truly savvy person will see through this charade and realize that Liberalism is a massively flawed point of view.





Here's a challenge: you post just three points where your grandfather says you are in error, or post three of your liberal ideas you think are irrefutable, and I will show you where you are wrong, if indeed your ideas are wrong.





By the way, have you ever had a real, in-depth conversation with your grandfather about politics? If you want the emails to stop voluntarily, you could try sitting down with him, and if you are so entrenched in your Liberal dogma that he sees there is no hope, he may give up, leaving you off the hook.
Since this is your grandpa, it's best to just delete the email, ignore it and forget about it. He loves you and he thinks he's doing the right thing. Many of us have conservatives in our families, and we just don't get into political discussions with them. You are very unlikely to change his mind no matter what proof you could give him... but you are quite likely to anger him if you try to discuss politics with him. So for everyone's sake, just delete it and don't give it a second thought. There are probably others in your life who would welcome your wisdom. Spend your time on them.

Here is something that Liberals aren't very familiar with. . . Allow him to have an opinion that is different from yours. Maybe he has more experience than you do and you should listen to him.
If he loves you he will respect your views. If not, he won't live forever.
You could try to avoid political conversations with him. Also, there is a book called ';How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)'; by Ann Coulter that you could buy him.
Discuss politics with him, defend your views.
He is entitled to his opinion. If you are 18 years of age or older then you are free to disregard his opinion.





If people telling you that liberal ways are wrong or that your ways are wrong then you are going to spend a lot of your life worrying about what someone else is saying.





If your opinions and ways are based only on what you feel or what you have heard, then they could very well *be* wrong. Do your own research and come to your own conclusions. Once you do that, you may freely defend your decisions.
Just tell him you have decided to convert and are praying that the socialist programs of social security and medicare will be abolished.
Just ignore it, and if he presses you, say you disagree. You should hear some of the crap my dad says.
Listen and learn from your grandpa.
Truth hurts ya honey, deal with it.
Listen and learn. He's right.
Your grandpa is quite the controller - which, of course, connotation is conservative. Keep a distance, but hold your tongue.
Whine like a little *****, as usual
You should listen to your grandpa, he'll put you on the right road to success. You'll never be on welfare, and you'll grow up without total strangers taking care of you.
Have some respect for your pep-pep!


You let your pep-pep be a fascist


and you let Granny Nanny smoke her Pall Malls


because you haven't lived long enough or paid enough taxes to have an opinion, missy!
Tell him conservatives are full of shi4 and you hope he doesn't start hanging out with any of them

Support Obamacare. That'll fix his wagon the next time he tries to seek treatment for any ailment. Though, that would be cruel.
He's right and you're just a kid. You'll grow up though. Hopefully.
Be respectful. He has lived longer than you, he might have a point. Try listening to him.
You should try talking to him. Basically indicate you don't want to be like him. And show how much it bothers you. He's making you look wrong so in essence make him look wrong with some emotional blackmail.





Or sing Whatever by Oasis.





But in all seriousness you shouldn't have to put up with this.
now you know how he feels when you say conservatives are wrong..........
Your grandfather has lived a long time and has learned many things, you should listen to him, he knows what he's talking about.
Block his emails and tell him you'll only unblock him if he does not send any more political emails.
don't get mad at your grandpa for telling you the truth. respect your elders, they are usually right. in this case, he coundn't be more right
Listen to your Grandpa Jay. He's seen it all, done it all. He probably started out in life a lot like you.
E-mail back and tell him that old age has calcified his brain cells and that the conservatism is the first sign of either senility or Alzheimers. point to Rush Limbaugh as the perfe4ct example of talking without knowing anything.





Actually, just send back a polite e-mail telling your grandfather he is entitled to his views, but that you disagree with him and that you would prefer to leave politics out of any future conversations or e-mails. If he does not agree, then block his e-mails.
lol





You have a Great man as your Grandpa








Jay...you want to know the truth...





It's hard for a woman to except the woes of her past as she get older. Better listen to your Grandpa. I don't say this to hurt you...but the truth must be told.





for your sake.





You can call me the Bad Cop...





but you will never know me...so it doesn't matter.


But you will have to live with yourself. Learn from others...





it is better to be offended by me...while being educated...then not to be offended and live with a mistake for the rest of your life.





oh





and I was a Liberal once...and then woke up to reality.


Thank God I did...I never wanted to be that ignorant again.
