palpation of the age

What cause generation gap between parents and children? Answer: The number of years between when they were born. A generation gap is not only about the true age difference between parents and children. It is much more related to the different thoughts and due to this the different behaviour between them. Older parents find it difficult to "adjust" to their children and the present youth's, their children's, code of conduct. Many people think that parents should have children earlier because this will make it easier for the children to relate to their parents. In today's societies we find that most people are against young people having children. We only look at the effects on education this might cause, not paying attention to the positive effect young mothers and fathers have on their children when it comes to the "gap". The young parents might not be as responsible as we older people would want them to be and this adds more trouble to the "gap". A lot of the older generations simply do not trust the younger ones to make the right choices because they do not do or think the same way as they do. Younger generations do make mistakes but instead of older generations helping out, we seem to condemn them instead. It is of course the easiest approach to condemn. No wonder why there are so many problems around the world. According to various laws, young people falling in love and due to this make new life, are condemned. If a mother is too young and the father is too old, then we condemn again. Children need protection, but when fathers in a relationship might face prosecution and up to 30 years in prison for an act of actually giving life, then this does not make sense. People can rob, steal, murder and face far less. Children are not stupid and they do not understand why the laws are as strict as they are. As of being terrified by laws, Doe's and Dont's, the generation gap grows larger. Older people that try to help out with generation gap problems often end up in trouble them selves. This because they often have ideas and solutions that are not within the mainstream of thoughts. A lot of older so called mature people are afraid of change. They can't cope with change and are actually scared of it. Some of these fight a battle to the extreme in order to preserve their way of life rather than giving other younger people a fighting chance to prove themselves. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_cause_generation_gap_between_parents_and_children
