Well, to be honest. I think it's all about the guilt trip. Guilt-tripping people usually has this way of making them obligated to do stuff, atleast for me. So guilt-trip the hell out of your mom & dad. Let them know that they won't live to see your future children/their grandchildren. That you want to see them learn from their grannies. Or a good kick in the ass might help?.. Basically you need something to kick these people into high gear. Find out what scares the daylights out of them, and do that, something to put them in a different mental state. I know how you feel btw. My dad was brilliant, but he was very set in his way because he felt he knew everything.
