Old generation vs new generation
The gap between the old generation vs new generation is very big. The way things used to work in the past is not the same as now because new systems of doing things have been make known to the society. Others have been of assistance to us in a way or another while some have relapsed our influence on the society. The way we consolidate things is different from how our old generation used to sort out and live manically in their society. New generation’s thinking is related to our nation as well as the whole world, but my parent’s generation was restricted to their family and native country. Nowadays, we are living in a world that is constantly changing, so we have to adapt ourselves to interacting with people from different generations. Consequently, the differences between our generations appear in three major areas: communication, education, and lifestyle.

     One of the most obvious differences between people in the new generation and people in old generation is how they communicate. People in my generation are used to connecting with each other almost immediately. For example, if young people want to contact their friends that live in different countries, they usually contact them by using their mobile phones. Teenagers in the new generation spend most of their time chatting with their friends on their mobile phones or chatting online more than doing anything else. On the other hand, people from the old generation are accustomed to writing letters to contact friends that are far away. Furthermore, they like to deal with other people face to face. All in all, people in new generation communicate differently than people in the older generation.

     In addition, another great difference between people in the new generation and the old generation is education. Most people in new generation tend to have at least a bachelor’s degree. In other words, they cannot work until they have an appropriate education. In contrast, people in the older generation did not have a lot of opportunities to study. In the past, only rich people would have the opportunities to study. Also, people in the older generation focused more on working than studying. Thus, people in new generation have a higher education than people in old generation. And to be more specific, the new generation has the opportunity to study abroad. Our government gives scholarship to almost everyone in any fields. This is in contrast with the old generation when the scholarship program was only for the people who had a high position in the military.

     The last difference between people of the new generation and the old generation is lifestyle. People in the new generation enjoy easier lives. For example, when some young people graduate from university, they may not have to work immediately. They can sit around at home and do nothing because their parents are willing to support them. Furthermore, people that are my age are able to make up their minds spontaneously. They do not have to be concerned too much about their future plans. On the other hand, people in the old generation tended to have harder lives. When they wanted something, they had to work really hard to achieve it. To sum up, people of new generation have more comfortable lives than those of old generation.

            In conclusion, communication, education, and lifestyle are the primary differences between new generation and the old generation. Each generation has its own unique advantages and drawbacks, but the most important thing is that every generation gives valuable lessons to the next generation.
