“The truth is that sending your parent to the past is unlikely to make them see the error of their ways. Physicists refer to this phenomenon as the Boomer Father Paradox, which was originally posited by Austro-Hungarian logician Kurt Gödel, who wrote in a 1931 monograph that “he’s never going to fucking change, no matter what. He’s just going to keep pulling the same damn shit forever.” In layman’s terms, what this means is that your parents are incapable of growth. You can spend millions of dollars, rupture space-time, and taser the heck out of them, and they won’t learn a thing. It’s a foundational law of the universe.”
― Simon Rich, Glory Days: Stories
