NEW GENERATION VS OLD GENERATION

The generation gap is widening at an alarming speed. New generation should take the advantage of modernization, which has taken place all over the world at a very fast pace. This should be considered blessing, but at times, the young mind can get tempted & his/her use of modernization, mayn’t be appropriate. In spite of the blessings of modernization, the stress level of the youth is very high due to a very competitive world, and they should avoid getting solace in any temporary or inappropriate pleasure of modernization. We have to change for the better & adjust according to the need of the time. What culture used to prevail during olden days, was not absolutely right, & what is happening these days can’t be totally appropriate. 

Sometimes parents want to give advice to their children about what they gathered from their lifetime’s experience. Children don’t have patience to listen, & they will prefer to have their own experiences. At times, there is so much disparity the way two generations think. For new generation…run, run & run, & have some fun. Life is once & should be enjoyed.

Misuse of IT... like cellular phone & Internet Social networkingMediaRave parties Luxury schools Peer pressure India is a very culture oriented country, and there can be change of language, dress code, cooking habits amongst the people of different religion & caste.

The elders should be tolerant to changes as long as they are within normal limits. Youth in metro spends time in malls, watching movies & eating fast food. One fine day, some of them may fall in love & then relationship. Few will progress further towards marriage. Most such marriages are usually not successful, because soon they discover they are different types, cultural problem, family background, and so many other factors, which are seriously considered in arranged marriages. Well, arranged marriages are also not 100% successful, but couple makes all possible efforts, & also parents from both the side are co-operative.

New generation believe much in brand, fast food, fast transport, and fast communication over cellular phones or internet, hobbies are surfing, facebook, Orkut etc. No time for games, & if they add some kgs of extra weight, would prefer to go to Gym.Some of the modern advancements have changed the lives of so many. Metro is one; you just think & plan, & you will be there very soon. But, some use this just to have different agenda.We should have more counsellors in schools, colleges & other institutions & there should be stress on moral education. They should live life fully & enjoy, but not at the cost of their career, health & compromising with morale, ethics & duties.
