My friends who have kids now did become more conservative. But most of them are very religious and grew up going to church every Sunday. So... I think they might have had a certain influence.
After I had kids I found Satanism and became a communist. I have no idea what your friends are doing but they're doing it wrong.
I'd guess those friends were always that conservative, it's just that now they have less energy and incentive to tone it down around friends...combined with having more to lose now.
