Do fathers still give their kids the "music lesson"?

YOu know, where they play the kind of music you listen to, call it crap and other names, then start playing their music, talking about how it's real music.
Mine did that with rock music. He would put it on WFMF or similar and bad mouth it all, then put it on WYNK when it was playing twangy country and say now that's real music, etc. Remember reading in Bill Cosby's book his father did the same thing. Do parents today still do it or have more of a live and let live attitude?

They would suck if I thought them no doubt.

My kids like mostly the same music I do so I don’t have to do anything like that. Not that I would anyway, because it does not work.

Absolute scenes when S Jr. rattled the windows of the Bentley with his National Basketball Association Youthful Male nonsense. I had to come back with Chopin’s cello sonata in G minor.

I started mine off right with metal lullabies. But due to dance, my 11 year old daughter also knows all the words to Get Low.

I didn’t experience that as a kid and did expose my kids to it.
They listened to my music. I listened to theirs. It’s no different now that they are financially independent young men. We still swap music and go to concerts together.

Most of friends were in punk bands.
It's funny to go to dinner at their houses where the parents are playing The Damned and Ramones and the teenage kids are rebelling by blaring Incan flute music or Duke Ellington or Herb Alpert from their rooms.

This was back when a lot of parents hated rock music, especially metal and all that.

New music does suck
Dad rock sucks too
How did boomers take bullshite like acdc and led zeppelin seriously
ETA: the downvote button decreased boomer computer literacy because they just downvote now instead of angrily typing a reply with 2 fingers

I use one finger. And my spelling and grammar are perfect as a result.

Mine never did that. He played his own music and let me listen to mine. Even took me to concerts I liked when I was too young to go by myself.
Now I listen to literally anything and everything from classical music to old 40s country music to pop to new rap and anything between.

Actually did. I figured I was the only one but remembered Cosby talking about it too.
At least he didn't make me listen to my mother's favorite station, WQXY.
