Sarah: "Yeah, I wish mine were like that."
Noun: An article or sometimes but very rarely a video that exploits parental instincts in order to scare the parents out of granting their children access to something.
Example:
Person 1: Hey, did you get the new Call Of Duty game?
Person 2: No, my mom says that violent video games cause violence in real life.
Person 1: That's just a parent scare, it's not true.

A parenting method with a mostly negative connotation. The parent ignores the child completely, acting like they don't exist until one small issue arises that is forced upon them by someone else and then the parent bursts into action, usually an over-reaction, until the issue is resolved. Afterwords, returning to their comatose parenting state.

Polish parents who moved to America and discouraged their kids from learning Polish or about Polish traditions, leaving their children and grandchildren with no sense of Polish culture other than the existence of Pierogi.
“Hey man, Happy święconka! You’re Polish, right?”
“Nah, my parents were Pierogi Parents, I don’t know what that is.”
A close/best friend that still loves you, but no longer needs you for support, entertainment, guidance, affection, etc., and gradually stops involving you in their life/seeking you out in the same way or for the same reasons.
They still love you and will still answer/respond at the same rate when you reach out to them, but will no longer contact you on their own unless it's a special occasion, an emergency, or they need something specific.
Much like how children and young adults stop wanting to spend time with their parents and would rather spend time with their friends instead.
Being parent-zoned means you've essentially been replaced as a friend but without any malice or loss of love / emotional importance.
He still treats me with a lot of love and respect and is always there when I need him, but he doesn't call or text nearly as much as he used to. His personal situation hasn't changed, guess I've just been parent-zoned.
