As for risk adverse that would also help to make us pretty boring in comparison but it is better than replaying the idiot decisions that some older folk have made. I have seen the consequences of what risk taking has done and like hell I would repeat it.

Yeah, my parents always jokingly told me about all the screw-ups they made because they didn't want me to repeat the same mistakes.

My mother never did that. She told me her past and i observed her present actions and saw the screw ups and vowed never to do that.

Well they think everything's been done to the point they'd rather do nothing. Why is doing nothing preferable to something?

Also when something hasn't been done and you suggest it, they look at you like you're nuts and prefer to do things the "safe" way even if it will yield fewer returns. They seem to need tons of examples and tons of years of studies before attempting anything. Or they shoot down ideas and say people would have tried it if it worked or think it's not grounded in reality. It's like possibility, vision, and imagination are lost amongst them and they have such trust in the official institutions that they seem to think any alternative is quackery or crazy.

Or maybe they know that your idea is bonkers and BS and you are too thick-headed and self-absorbed to get the clue they are trying to give you because you think everyone is a dumb sheep?

Seriously, the problem isn't with other people, the problem is with you. Get a damn psychotherapist.
