Saying that all parents hate anime is a big generalization. My dad likes watching Noir with my brother.Edit: I have a few friends whose parents watch anime with them. Personally I've been trying to introduce my parental units to Domo-kun. They liked the bit about when he's angry he breaks wind. >_<

Violence, blood, gore, depressing...ness.Also, I think it confuses them having sub-human animations, rather than stuff like Pokemon cartoons they approve of wholly.

Dad doesn't understand, but mom watched all of FMA and has seen Howl's Moving Castle and Paprika, she just tends to get confused

Eh.... my parents think all anime/cartoons aren't good for me, but I watch 'em anyways. As long as my grades are up, they dont care much.

My parents don't really care what I watch just as long as its not bad. But I'm old enough to watch whatever I want.

my parents love anime because they find it to have meaning unlike other shows.

I think it's because they have problems with their children reading picture books?

my mom hated anime because the only one she has ever had any contact with is Dragon Ball Z and she thought it was a lesson on male childbirth though the main reason most parents dont like it is because their children do and they just dont see whats good about it. this is often not helped by the fact that parents have a very annoying habit of only seeing the worst possible parts of anime such as ranma striping or the ever so often nude female in hotspring or bath and this causes their mind to immidiately think its porn.

Because they're parents, they're not sentient being like us.

hmm... not all of them hate anime, this is just a problem of hobby. like wrestling, some people say it's sport the other say violence. each have their own taste about something. if your parent doesn't like anime well just leave it be.

My parents don't hate it, they just don't understand it. Most parents are like mine. But there are some that think that it will corrupt their children (aka the younger generation).

My parents thought that seeing Versailles no Bara would make me a lesbian and Saint Seiya would make me a fight-loving girl. Really now...Most parents think that it's animes fault that their children become violent or throw themselves out of the window. That's not true. While some cartoons DO show violence it's important that the PARENTS make the child realize that that is not the reality. So it's not just Evil Japan Anime fault... But then again, children are allowed to watch the news and they see deaths, killings... I call that ipocrisy; you want to put anime after 11.00 PM and then you show murdered men during lunchtime? ...

they think it's just for kids... and when they start to watch they think it's too violent or not suitable for kids.... I would tell that some animes do have mature themes..they think it's just for kids... and when they start to watch they think it's too violent or not suitable for kids....

Sometimes parents hates anime bcause it has some violence e.g fighting,badwords,etc. . Also one reason is their children are spending more time watching anime than spending their time with their family.

It is because they are trying to install the right things into their child's mind. They do not take intrest in much of anime (most of them) and so they do not know what is inside the content of them.It is probably because they are afraid of what is unknown??... i dunno if it is not.

they hate anime is becoz they feel its too violent or the sexual content is a little too much for the kids.
