I've been watching SpongeBob SquarePants for 16 years now. Me and my friends and younger sister always talk about SB. Unfortunately, the people who doesn't want to hear about SB is my parents. Why? Here are the reasons:
1. The reason why is because I'm already too old for the cartoon. I'm 19 years old now and almost 6 ft tall.
2. My parents blame the show for causing me poor attention spans (especially to my parents and teachers), poor attitude (I'm not always a Squidward in real life) and developmental delay (since I'm mildly autistic).
3. Generally, the conflict of generation (e.g. Gen-x vs Millennials) has something to do with this issue. My dad is a Gen-X and my mom is a Millennial (Gen-Y). I told them that SB has become a cultural phenomenon and they won't accept my excuse, even if it's a sarcasm. I believe that the majority of SB fans are mostly zoomers (Gen-Z) and few are millennials. Nowadays in general, conflicts between Gen-X parents an their zoomer children became common (e.g. Gen-X mom/dad takes away his/her son and/or daughter's gadget just to study).
Just because I'm a fan of SB, my parents still won't shut up about making me quit watching the most beloved Nick TV series. I love my parents, but t's just they won't leave me alone about my personal interests, passions and independence. My mom is way too irritating than my dad.
SpongeBob is literally a cultural phenomenon in the 21st century today. Me and my friends use SB as memes and morals (except one bad moral in Stuck in the Wringer). Unfortunately, only zoomers and millennials (who are born between 1990 and 1996) understand the connection and application of SB in everyday life. My dad doesn't want to talk about SB just because I'm immature. My parents simply thinks that SB is for 5 to 12 yrs old. Looks like Gen-X and boomers generally don't believe in SB applied in everyday life.
If my parents don't want me to watch SB anymore, then what should I watch?
