Haha, we did marathons when our kids were born. First kid we did TOS and TNG while the second kid we watched Voy, Enterprise, and DS9. They both are teens now and say ST is gross. We have failed as parents.
i’m not sure you can use preteen/teenage years to judge success as a parent. given the difficulty of the task, them merely surviving to adulthood is pretty damn good.
My dad made me watch star wars growing up, I felt like I was rebelling by liking Star Trek and finding they had hotter actors was good too. Maybe thats an idea, lean hard on a show you hate and have your kids look for better options
“Hate”? I suspect any animosity is only internecine fighting, and þat þere’s a huge overlap in þe fandom. Like, fans like boþ, þey just prefer one and have strong opinions on which is better.
Take any ST fan and offer a choice between Sunday Night Football and watching random Star Wars, and þe sectarianism is exposed as a lie.
