What is the correct allegiance?

Ok opinions please ....born and bread in Carlo lol , parra supporter always , I want my two boys to follow parra and so far they know mum loves parra and seven year old supports. As both boys were born in newie my rugby husband reckons if they go for any mungoes team it should be the knights..Ewwww I would like to have them with my tradition and so many school families support a multitude of teams due to the knights being a later entry .Who is right ? Should I back off from my parra brain washing??

  • No way Carlo Eel, keep brainwashing them! I have friends that have 4 kids, and they all go for different teams. It's a nightmare when one wants to go to the footy amd watch their team play and the others don't.
  • No. Double down. Rules of family is whoever it matters more to, wins out, and given your husband isn't even a Newcastle supporter, it should be your say! Parra all the way.

    • He is very weakly a wests supporter but doesn't accept they are wests tigers so in reality his team doesn't exist lol but yes 1ee I care more so I was following that line of thought
  • Personally I don't like parents brainwashing their kids to support a particular club. Let them choose for themselves. My dad is a Bulldogs supporter and he didn't try to influence me to follow them when I was young (thank god!). I'm very thankful that I wasn't 'coerced' to follow another team because I'd likely be a Dogs supporter now, which would be the most horrible thing that I can imagine.

  • There is only one rule re footy in my house. You either follow Parra or enjoy the street life.

    • Haha, I gave that option to my kid and he's accepted it.
  • When I have kids, they shall support Parramatta. No ifs, no buts. I grew up surrounded by blue and gold and they will too.

  • My whole family goes for the Dragons except my Nan who would was a Eels supporter and bribed me with food if I followed the Eels. Glad I love food.
  • Probably cos my judgement is shitty generally , embers lol if I put it out to the masses they may agree with my judgement . I figure I can't lose on an eels site :-))
  • Get them to support the Mighty Eels. You don't want any affiliation to the "Nanna Knights".
