I’m 32. Maybe conservative was not the right word to use. I still consider myself on the left side of the political spectrum (even outside of the US). But every now and then I catch myself in situations, where I would have been a lot more idealistic some years ago. Now there are often thoughts like ‘Well, there have to be compromises’. But you made a great point. The shift you go through while growing older may definitely depend on your parents’ political views, too.
