The big culture war coming this century is going to be about body modifications and other technological choices (GM babies, VR, etc) Vs a revived conservative culture that favours nature and family values. I expect the naturalists to win due to potential higher birth rates.
This is to assume that people "inherit" their views on certain issues which is not the case. Every Christian had pagan ancestors. Every atheist had both pagan and Christian ancestors. Every free love enthusiast had ancestors who believed in sanctity of marriage. So we're always betraying our ancestors!
Personally, I never agreed with my father on many things and if a view was too similar to my father's ideas that was enough to reject it. (generally, his mindset was quite similar to yours)
Parenthood becoming cool during a 2T? Possible if it's a "civic awakening" like Solidarity in Poland or the Arab Spring rather than a proper Romantic one.
If there are attempts to ban transhumanism, it will motivate the transhumanists to depart for outer space!
