Proverbs 1:8 - "Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching."Parents are our authority. We are to learn from our parents. They know best, period, as long as they are following God's standards. It's wrong to think that you can know better for yourself than your parents. It just shouldn't be done. I don't mean any offence.

No, it says to listen. I listen to my parents, I respect them, and I do what they say if it is logical, but nowhere in the Bible does it say that I can't know better than my parents. They are wiser than me, yes, but logically, I'm above them, and they know it. Don't be a sheep; think for yourself. I question everything. My mom hates it, and my dad understands it. But there's nothing wrong with being self aware.
