IS THERE REALLY A GENERATION GAP?
According to the results of a survey in USA WEEKEND Magazine, there isn't really a
generation gap. The magazine's "Teens & Parents" survey shows that today's generation of
young people generally get along well with their parents and appreciate the way they're
being raised. Most feel that their parents understand them, and they believe their parents
consider family as the No. 1 priority in their lives. Although more than a third of teens have
something in their rooms they would like to keep secret from their parents, it is usually
nothing more harmful than a diary or a CD.
Such results may seem surprising in the context of the violent events that people hear
about in the media. Maybe because of the things they hear, parents worry that their own
kids might get out of control once they reach the teenage years. However, the facts in the
survey should make us feel better. The survey shows us that today's teens are loving and
sensible. They are certainly happier than the angry people in the teenage stereotypes we
all know about. True, some teenagers are very angry, and we need to recognize their
needs, but the great majority of teens are not like that at all.
In contrast to some stereotypes, most teens believe they must be understanding about
differences among individuals. Many of them volunteer for community service with
disadvantaged people. When they talk about themselves, their friends and their families,
they sound positive and proud. Generally, these are very nice kids.
Is this spirit of harmony a change from the past? Only a generation ago, parent-child
relations were described as the "generation gap". Yet even then, things were not so ba d.
Most kids in the 1960s and 1970s shared their parents' basic values.
Perhaps, however, it is true that American families are growing closer at the beginning of
this new millennium. Perhaps there is less to fight about, and the dangers of drug abuse
and other unacceptable behavior are now well known. Perhaps, compared to the
impersonal world outside the home, a young person's family is like a friendly shelter, not a
prison. And perhaps parents are acting more like parents than they did 20 or 30 years ago.
