How to deal with small minded people?

Like uncles who are angry that you are dating someone from Poland. :/

I live in a small, small town, and people here are so narrow minded. It honestly makes me angry. I lived overseas for a bit and it really opened my mind.

I think older people are narrow minded

@angie8819 well there seem two kinds.. those who, having had experience of life have learned that things aren't black and white and that there's an infinite array of reasons why people do things so we shouldn't judge.. and those who perhaps started out narrow minded and just become more and more entrenched in their beliefs and dogma.. Good thing is most older people are the more open minded kind
