[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 654814, member: 18958"] Thank you for this SWOT. My child for the last year has gotten into conspiracy theories. Among them anti-Zionist themes which I find hateful and disturbing. I have tried to reason with him, asking him not to discuss these themes in my presence or in my home. Before I discovered this site I still hoped that reasoning, persuasion and polite discourse might eventually work. A couple of weeks ago, he started a sentence with, "Mom, do you who xxx was? "Yes," I replied he was an important financier." He responded..."Zionists...." Immediately, I slammed him: "Never again in my home mention those words again. Never." "But Mom, it's not Anti-Jewish (like i know nothing and he has to teach me.) He continued...."Zionism and Judaism are different things." ...I amped up more. "If I ever hear those word again in my home, you do not come here." A little bit later, I had calmed down. "Mom, I have NEVER heard you so mad." He has not mentioned ANY conspiracy theory since.
