Are you Irish Catholic.
I could at least reach my mom when we spoke privately. But my dad just watched too much fox news. He became someone I didn't recognize.
My sister and her daughter inlaw run the local right to life chapter. The both demonstrated outside of their cities Planned Parenthood. They are against gay rights, immigration. Trump is their savior.
