A few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.

One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents

know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society,

young people often travel great distances for their education, move

out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their

parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of

their parents.

In our society, parents often expect their children to do better

than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all

the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause

of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very

little in common with each other.

Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is

the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional

culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our

society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The

young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds,

separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation

gap will continue in American life for some time to come.
