There probably was a time when you thought your parents weren’t cool. That’s quite normal for teens who care about their reputation and status among their peers. You know how parents can be sometimes.

However, interestingly enough, there will come a time when you’ll look at your parents and think “huh, they certainly are cool,” despite them being at that very same, or very similar age in their lives that you were when you thought they weren’t all that cool.

Well, people on Twitter have been doing just that—being in awe at how cool their parents actually were back in their youth (or young adulthood) and sharing pictures.
