Holly Graham argues that parents can be just as bad as teenagers because they often engage in similar behavior, such as gossiping, spreading rumors, and engaging in cliques. She points out that parents can be just as judgmental and exclusive as teenagers, and can also exhibit the same level of immaturity and pettiness. Graham also suggests that parents may feel a sense of power and control over their children and their social interactions, which can lead to problematic behavior. Ultimately, she argues that adults should be held to the same standards as teenagers when it comes to their behavior in social situations.
